Hamline university news release policy

Hamline University issues news releases expressly for the purpose of earning media around transformational accomplishments and national news making developments from our community. News team staff evaluate opportunities and advise on the appropriate channel for Hamline’s news.

Student hometown news releases

Hometown news releases announce various achievements such as when students make the dean's list and when students graduate. Hamline maintains a Merit page for this purpose.

Features and recognition for faculty, staff, alumni, and students

Faculty, staff, alumni, and students can work with the Office of Communications to publicize an accomplishment or event on the appropriate Hamline communications outlet.

  • Transformational accomplishment: Hamline is changing the world, and you’ll see our most significant accomplishments in the media, online in our Hamline News section and in Hamline Magazine.
  • Grants and research: Typically new research and grant awards will be recognized on social media, Inside Hamline or with a feature story on Hamline News.
  • Professional awards: Awards of national significance will be included in a profile on Hamline News or on social media. Other awards may be featured in Inside Hamline.
  • On-campus events: Events and happenings on campus will all be featured in Inside Hamline.
