Submit Your Drake News & Events
The Drake public relations team needs information in advance to properly publicize your stories and events. Please submit event information and files 10-14 days before the desired publish date. Your information will be sent to the Drake Marketing and Communication Office.
We do appreciate you taking time to share information and ideas. Filling out this form does not guarantee the event will be publicized. Stories will be approved and rewritten at the discretion of the Drake University public relations staff.
Events ReleaseReleases are limited to events that are open to the general public. Events restricted to the Drake community will appear only in the OnCampus e-newsletter and be sent to campus news media. Information must be received a minimum of 7 days in advance of the event to generate a news release shared with the local media (TV, radio and the Des Moines Register) and hometown papers and posting on the Drake home page. Due to the high volume of requests, event news releases will not be written if information is received less than one week before the event. |  | Feature StoryFeature stories can be pitched to the media and/or published as news highlights on the Drake homepage and in various electronic newsletters:
Story ideas are entered into a database used by Marketing and Communications staff to develop editorial content for all university communications vehicles, including Blue magazine. |
