Not sure whether your news would interest the media? MaC media relations is happy to provide guidance. We're always interested in hearing about:

Research findings

The media is most interested in your research breakthrough if it will impact or interest the general public. Reporters also pay more attention to peer-reviewed work about to be published in a journal or presented at a conference or government hearing.

Well-known campus visitors

UNCW draws famous individuals each year to speak at special gatherings including conferences, lectures and graduation ceremonies. Prominent scholars also spend time teaching on campus; let us know if you're about to host such a visitor.

Major announcements

Let Media Relations know if a faculty member or student has received an important award, or if your department has acquired a significant gift or grant.

Events

The campus calendar is filled with events throughout the year, but certain ones -- especially those on newsy or otherwise fascinating topics -- would catch a reporter's eye. We can help attract coverage of such events.

Human interest stories

Reporters are always interested in a good human interest story, whether it's about an extraordinary person or project. We're always interested in stories about students and their one-of-a-kind contributions to UNCW and the community. 

Unique new courses

As each new semester is about to begin, Media Relations looks for unique new courses – whether they're tied to current events, are trendy, or would simply be fun for the public to read about – to pass along to reporters.
