The Office of Communications and Advancement aims to help raise the profile of the School of Education — its faculty, staff, and students, and various units and programs.
This is achieved through a range of communication efforts utilizing the School’s website, social media accounts, e-newsletters (Insider Scoop for faculty and staff, and Red Door Digest for alumni and friends), and the Learning Connections alumni magazine.
To improve the effectiveness of the School’s communication and engagement efforts, it’s vital that the Office of Communications and Advancement stays informed of the news and events occurring throughout the School. We want to hear from you!
Submitting News and Story Ideas
Have you won an award, received a research grant, published a paper, or appeared in a media report? Is your work making a difference in the local community, around Wisconsin, or across the world? These are only a few examples of the types of stories we like to write up and share out. In a nutshell, we’re interested in helping people get a better idea of all the wonderful things taking place across our School.

- Include a description of the news item that answers the five Ws and an H: Who? What? Where? When? Why? and How?
