Communications and Marketing

Communications developed by units in the Office of the Vice Provost for Educational Equity require review to maintain the University's visual and editorial design standards.

To ensure the quality and consistency of all print and electronic communications, as well as promotional merchandise for the Office of the Vice Provost for Educational Equity, an editorial and visual review of these items is required.
