This form is to be used for communication requests from departments within the Student Services Wing that are intended for either all students, all employees, or college-wide requests (both students and employees).
All mass communications sent from a department within Student Services need to be submitted through this form to obtain approval from Dr. Kate Mueller, VP of Student Services.
. Details for each type of request are as follows:
Email Notification: This type of message is strictly informational with simple language and no additional graphics other than if you have a flyer that you request to be attached. These messages look like a normal, text-only email. These messages will go out via the Office of Student Services and typically have a 5 day response time.
Email Promotion: This type of message is designed to create interest in your request with promotional language meant to "hype up" your event/opportunity and generate excitement for it. These messages typically include in-message graphics and other visual elements like formatted text & text boxes, buttons, and more. For examples of what these types of messages can look like, please see the links below:
Example Message 1 (including videos as part of a larger marketing request, formatting, and promotional wording)
Example Message 2 (including graphics, formatting, and promotional wording)
Example Message 3 (including graphics, formatting, and promotional wording)
These messages will go out via the Marketing Department and typically require a 2-4 day response time. They are also oftentimes part of larger promotional requests - if you have submitted a larger promotions request to Marketing through the *Marketing Promotional Request Portal (*coming soon) and are requesting additional email promotion, you will be able to note that in this form.
Note: Flyers can also be attached to these emails if necessary, but typically inspiration is taken from any existing media for the email itself.
If you have already created your email in Slate, you will still need to obtain approval before your message can be sent. There will be an option for you to specify that your message is already created in Slate and to provide that information.
Depending on the type of request you have, your message may be routed through either the Office of Student Services or the Marketing Department.
