Communications Liaisons
Communications Liaisons help make our decentralized marketing system easier and faster to work with. Independently employed by the areas they represent, these liaisons are your conduit to University Communications services, and will help you determine what you need, schedule meetings with University Communications as needed and speed up the process of developing marketing and PR materials.
