The University Record begins its 1992–93 publication schedule today (Sept. 8).
Published by the Office of News and Information Services, the Record is distributed each Monday September–May, except during holiday periods, and biweekly June–August.
The official publication of the U-M, the Record carries articles of interest to faculty, staff and retirees, and letters to the editor from members of the University community on issues of broad campus interest, as well as current campuswide job openings and a calendar of events. See page 4 for letters policy.
The Record is distributed campuswide to more than 65 racks in high-traffic buildings. Copies are available in residence hall lobbies and are sent through campus mail to selected departments and administrative units.
It also is mailed to faculty and staff retirees, a national group of fund-raising volunteers and to community, state and federal administrators interested in the University. Subscriptions are available for $40 (full year) and $15 (three months).
Suggestions for articles are welcomed by the editorial staff. Faculty and staff also are encouraged to submit items for Kudos, a feature highlighting honors received by individuals for activities directly related to their University work.
Information for news briefs (short items at the tops of pages) and for calendar entries must be received by 5 p.m. the Tuesday preceding publication. These must be in writing or sent via MTS or Banyan Vines. A form for submitting calendar information is on page 23. Organizations submitting calendar and news brief items must be affiliated with the University.
The Record also publishes notices for researchers seeking subjects for their research projects. The fee is $25 for each notice.
Display advertising space is available for U-M affiliates and commercial advertisers. Rate cards explaining fees and deadlines are available at the Record office, 412 Maynard St.
