Marketing Consultations & Requests

We love to meet with FSW employees to help elevate projects! Communication can make or break an initiative. Reach out to us while you are planning so our experts can help (please note: all requests will be routed through your VP/Dean for approval).

"I Need Canva Access"

Log in to Canva using the SSO to join Canva for Campus. By joining the college's account, you'll gain access to templates, brand kits, and other exclusive resources.

Collegewide Emails

Buc Bulletin: Weekly e-newsletter featuring important news and upcoming events. The email is sent out Monday morning to students and employees (the employee e-newsletter is comprised of the student newsletter along with employee updates at the top).

Mass Emails to FSW Employees: Emails to large groups of FSW employees (e.g. all employees, all faculty, all staff, etc.) can be done via Outlook using Listservs controlled by IT. Speak with your supervisor about access to these Listservs.

Mass Emails to FSW Students: Mass emails to students can be completed in a variety of ways. To get an event or piece of information added to the Monday e-newsletter, see the Buc Bulletin section. If you are requesting an email outside of the Buc Bulletin, please speak with your supervisor to be directed to the appropriate department.

FSW Success

One of our team's primary campaigns highlights the successes of our faculty, staff, students, and alumni. Have an awesome story? Send it to us! It might just be featured on our website, in a video, or on our social media accounts!
