Bringing Huron's Story to Life

Marketing and Communication Requests

It is important we always have the help of our community in notifying us when there are events, or promotions needing communications support on campus. That is why we developed this form which asks select questions assisting us in gauging the request. The Marketing and Communications team always strives to promote and service the needs of our community, and doing so in an organized, streamlined process will help all of us be on the same page.
