Office of Marketing & Communications
MarCom Work Request Form
Welcome to the Office of Marketing & Communications. We develop marketing strategies for the College of Nursing that support the dean’s annual strategic goals. As a small team, we prioritize requests that align with these goals.
➤ CON Work Requests
Please use the MarCom Request Form for CON story ideas and submissions, print materials, email campaigns, event support, photography, and website updates. Due to limited staffing, please allow at least 5 business days’ lead time. Submitting a request does not guarantee approval.
➤ External Media Contacts
If you are contacted by a reporter, please notify Ann Hess as soon as possible and share any relevant details before the interview. The college values and encourages faculty engagement with the media, especially when interviews focus on your research, scholarship, or areas of expertise. Any media inquiries involving institutional priorities, policies, or broader issues affecting the college or university also require coordination with Kyle Mittan in University Communications. Including him enables the university to provide context and support and to ensure alignment when topics extend beyond individual expertise. Please do not speak on behalf of the university unless you have coordinated with University Communications.
➤ Photos & Video
The Office of Marketing & Communications provides select photography and video services for the College of Nursing, including web directory head-and-shoulders photos and event photography and video.
Our office does not have professional studio lighting or backdrops. If your project requires studio-quality photography or video, please consult the list of University-approved photo and video vendors.
RELEASES: When photographing or recording individuals or their property, including artwork, for use on U of A websites, brochures, posters, or other promotional materials, you need written consent from anyone who is recognizable. You must obtain a signed Media Release form before using the photo or video.

➤ Social Media
The College of Nursing uses social media as a dynamic platform to share our story, celebrate achievements, engage key audiences, and highlight the impact of nursing education, research, and practice. Our official social media channels reflect the college’s mission and values and help elevate the U of A brand. The CON Marketing Office supports faculty, staff, and units in using social media effectively and responsibly by providing guidance, training, and oversight.
