Got a message of interest to the University community?
Got a meeting to announce? Is your organization spon
soring a speaker on or off campus? Do you need volunteers for
your program?
Use briefs.
The Emerald for many years has provided briefs as a
service to the University community—and we will continue to
do so this school year. Briefs are for people to let other people
know about coming events. Anyone can turn in a brief. Just
stop up at 301 Al len Hall and turn in your announcement.
Before you furn in your briefs, you should observe a few
requirements. Briefs must be readable. Briefs must include
pertinent information, such as time, date and place. And, they
should be typed and triple spaced, if possible.
Briefs can be run for two days at a time in the Emerald.
They usually can be found on the classified advertisement
pages or on the "on campus" pages of the Emerald.
When you turn in your brief, this is what will happen: in
the case of an event, the brief will be run the day of and the day
before the event. In the case of a general announcement, the
brief will be run for two days, whenever space allows.
All briefs are subject to space limitations. We try to get all
briefs in on their appropriate days, but emergencies
sometimes arise and space is needed. Therefore we can't
solidly guarantee that your brief will be printed. But, most of
the time it will.
The deadline for turning in briefs is 2:30 p.m. the day
before the brief is to be published (The Emerald will be
publishing five days a week—Monday through Friday—during
the school year, except exam periods and holidays.) There are
several categories of briefs: speakers, meetings, films,
campus interviws, PL-3, KWAX-FM, and miscellaneous.
Please specify the appropriate category on your brief.
Oh—one last thing. Briefs are free. No charge. And you
can use briefs as many times as you feel is necessary.
So, when you've got something of interest to the University
community, let them know about it through briefs. It's easy,
and it doesn't cost anything.
And, by the way, when you're trying to find out what's
happening in Eugene on a particular day, check out briefs.
Chances are you'll find out about a lot of things you wouldn't
have known about otherwise.
