SOURCE welcomes news items and story ideas from and about Colorado State University students, faculty and staff. Only items submitted by CSU employees, students, registered student organizations, departments, offices, or other CSU-affiliated organizations will be considered for posting to SOURCE. Approved items will be placed into the appropriate category by the editor. Submissions to be considered for inclusion in a SOURCE e-newsletter must be received by 10 a.m. the day before the email runs.

Categories are listed below with examples of content.

  • Campus Announcements (announcements including HR and benefits information, parking, and construction).
  • Major Events (most events should be posted on the University Events Calendar).
  • Research Recruitment (for researchers seeking study participants). Submissions that aim to recruit subjects for research studies must include the Institutional Review Board approval number. They must also include the IRB approval letter and approved recruitment language as an attachment.

Announcements of major events will be considered, but also must be submitted to the University Event Calendar. News and stories submitted to SOURCE will be reviewed within 48 hours, excluding weekends. Approved items will be edited and posted in the order they are received.
