This intake helps us (CNS Communications) understand your news more fully so we can craft accurate social media posts, news stories and can help you pitch your story to the university News Office and outside media. (The News Office has the ‘first right of refusal’ for the stories we pitch, and is the sole office with the capability to distribute press releases.)

Please note: we may quote extensively from your writing here, so if you have additional notes to the editor, please include them separately or highlight them.

If you need help filling these in, please contact Emily Graves at egraves@umass.edu.
