We’ve got a few updates to share from your friendly neighborhood Marketing & Communications team. Think of this as your quick “what’s new in Marcomm” check-in, minus the long meeting and awkward silence when someone asks, “Any questions?”

One Landing Page to Rule Them All

We’ve launched a refreshed Marcomm landing page, and we’re genuinely proud of it (which is rare for us, because we usually find three things to fix as soon as we’re done any project). Consider this a soft launch: it’s live now, it’s already packed with helpful tools, and it’ll keep getting small updates and improvements as we go. It’s part of a college-wide refresh of the CSN website.

If you need anything from our office, start here: csn.edu/marcom. It’s got:

• Marketing Request Form your direct line to our whole team
• Commodity Approvals Form yes, we made it easier, you’re welcome
• CSN logos and brand guidelines you can download anytime
• And more resources designed to help you stay organized and on track

We’re doing this kind of work across CSN, and faculty and staff play a big role in helping keep their pages clear, current and actually useful.

Classic Over Flashy

We’re getting rid of the TV monitors around campus in favor of posters, bulletin boards and printed materials. Cheaper, old-school, and effective.

The Email Signature Generator: Small Detail, Big Difference

Let’s talk about one of our favorites: the new Email Signature Generator.

It might seem small, but consistent email signatures go a long way in keeping CSN looking polished and professional across every campus and department. We’ve made it easy to create a clean, brand-aligned signature, without weird fonts, mismatched colors.

If you haven’t updated yours in a while, give it a try.

Commodity Approvals

Now with its own form, may we suggest bookmarking it! > Commodity Approval Form

Timing Is Everything

Good marketing takes time (and great content) to develop. Here’s what we need to give your project the glow-up it deserves:

• General promotions/requests: Give us at least 2 weeks’ notice
• Social media campaigns: We need 4 weeks’ lead time to brainstorm, design and schedule so your post doesn’t get lost in the scroll

It’s like cooking: you can’t microwave a five-course dinner. It takes time.

Share Your Stories (Yes, We Want Them)

We love publishing stories, and we’re always looking to spotlight great work happening across our campuses. Faculty, staff, students — if something cool, uplifting, inspirational or just plain newsworthy is happening in your area, we want to tell everyone about it.

Submit what you’ve got, and we’ll find creative ways to tell the story and celebrate the people behind it.
