Publicity

The information below is designed to be a quick guide to publicizing events at Marquette.

NOTE: If your event is sponsored/cosponsored by a registered student organization, see the policies/procedures for publicizing. All events must be registered with the Office of Student Development, and publicity must be approved.

Posters

A limited number of posters to advertise your student organization's event can be printed through the Office of Student Development at no cost to your organization. The limitations are as follows:

• 13 Posters for residence hall lobbies (7), campus-owned apartments (4), and the Evans Scholars House (2): SIZE: 11 x 17 inches. (Three halls no longer allow lobby posters but have installed AXIS TV Screens on which you can advertise.) You must contact the Office of Residence Life to reserve space. Events and publicity must be approved before reserving space with Residence Life.
• 1 Large Banner for AMU Rotunda: SIZE: 36 x 54 inches maximum (Must make reservations for space with Events Management and provide reservation confirmation number with request.)
• 2 large posters: SIZE: 24 x 36 inches maximum for display elsewhere.

If you are in need of more posters that what is allotted above, your organization is responsible for printing them elsewhere and incurring the costs of printing.

NOTE: Organizations that do not pick-up posters will be charged a fee for the printing ($0.75 for each 11x17" poster, $6.00 for each 24x36" poster, and $9.00 for each 36x54" poster).

Submit your print request.

Other posters or flyers can be printed through any of the Marquette University recommended print vendors (link is internal to campus only). NOTE: We currently do printing only for registered student organizations. Students who wish to have posters printed for class projects/conferences or departments outside the Division of Student Affairs who need publicity should have posters printed at one of the University recommended vendors.

All posters advertising student organization events need to be stamped by the Office of Student Development before they go up around campus (including residence halls). All events being publicized must be registered with and approved by the Office of Student Development before publicity will be approved. Information on publicity approval can be found under the Student Organizations Policies.

Events sponsored by Marquette offices and departments do NOT need to be stamped by the Office of Student Development.

Organizations Update

This update is sent to approximately 750 leaders of student organizations via an e-mail distribution list. Contact our office if you wish to include a submission to the email about your event.

Marquette Tribune

The Tribune charges for actual advertisements, but sometimes a well-written press release with a good amount of advanced warning will encourage one of the reporters to cover your event. Though you pay for advertising, having them write an article is FREE! Also, consider writing a Viewpoints letter to get published a couple days in advance of your event.

Display Case

The Event Management Office (AMU 245) is the place to reserve 1st floor display cases – an excellent way to advertise big events FREE for two weeks.

Table Tents

For table tents in the AMU, Residence Halls, and the Raynor Memorial Libraries, be sure to have them stamped by the Office of Student Development. To reserve space, contact the Event Management Office (AMU 245) for the AMU, the Office of Residence Life (Carpenter Tower 203) for the Residence Halls, and Raynor Library Conference Services for the Brew at the Bridge in the Raynor Memorial Libraries.

AMU Stairwell banners

The AMU Event Management Office (AMU 245) reserves banner space in the main stairwell. Stop in the office or give them a call at 414- 288-7202. They do request that banners be professionally done, but that doesn’t mean they have to be expensive. Contact the Office of Student Development (AMU 121) for information on how to design a banner that can be printed for free.

News Briefs

NewsBriefs are sent to students via email twice a week during the academic year. An event can be submitted to NewsBriefs at the following website: http://www.marquette.edu/omc/communication/newsbriefs.shtml. Please be aware there are submission deadlines that must be met. The Office of Marketing and Communication reserves the right to select which events are included in NewsBriefs.

Axis TV AMU

AXIS-TV is the system that publicizes events on AMU screens. Plan ahead because space is limited. You can make a request to post your flyer at the same time you request printing.
NOTE: Contact the Office of Residence Life to submit flyers for the AXIS TV screens in the residence halls and for Channel 95.
