Submission Guidelines

Good Morning Eastern is a weekly, online faculty/staff newsletter that is updated every Monday. Submissions received after copy deadlines are not guaranteed to be included in the upcoming issue. University Marketing and Communications reserves the right to edit any submissions for grammar, length and clarity. Submissions must be relevant to faculty and staff. Submissions will appear in Good Morning Eastern, unless otherwise notified. This is not a student-oriented publication, but rather an informative tool for faculty and staff.

Office directors are asked to print a copy of this document to share with colleagues who do not have regular access to a computer.
