Office of College Communications and Marketing

The Office of College Communications and Marketing is a combination news bureau, media relations office, advertising agency and public relations firm.

The department is responsible for all the news, comments and commentary, advertising and promotional materials and media interaction for the college.

Its primary mission is to promote the image  of the college by gathering information about the work of our faculty, staff, students, programs, services and events in an effort to supply the media with news and informational stories about the college.

The department is also responsible for the publication of up-to-the minute college news, photo galleries and videos. News can be viewed by visiting the RIC News website.  Story ideas are always welcome by submitting them to RICNews@ric.edu, or by contacting Laura Meade Kirk at (401) 456-8964 or lkirk@ric.edu.

The department also handles internal and external communications and publicity for the college. The RIC Weekly Report, an e-newsletter, is published weekly to inform the campus community of current events.  Submissions to the weekly e-newletter can be made at www.ric.edu/news_submit/briefs_login.php.
