Telling NIU's Story Together

Here are just three of the ways we're amplifying news about the people and programs that make NIU special.

Huskie Spotlights

Huskie Spotlights are profiles of NIU students, faculty, staff and alumni. One spotlight gets shared in several places at once, including NIU Today, NIU Announcements, emails to prospective students, and department and college webpages.

NIU Today

NIU Today covers research, grants, partnerships, awards, student achievements and the work going on across campus. Stories are also repurposed on webpages and in emails. If something notable is happening in your area, let us know.

All employees automatically receive NIU Today twice a week via their NIU email. Anyone is welcome to subscribe to receive these emails.

Undergraduate Majors Pages

We build and optimize our undergraduate majors pages that prospective students land on, with career outcomes, student and alumni voices and a clear way to request information. We work with college communications directors to keep that content current. Your program is being promoted to prospective students every day.
