Working With a Bulletin
A bulletin is a tool that we use to communicate with 澳门六合彩官网直播 faculty, staff and retirees. We distribute these bulletins through the 澳门六合彩官网直播 Today online portal, to which people from across campus can publish their own bulletin items. 澳门六合彩官网直播 Today submissions are only accepted through 澳门六合彩官网直播 CMS. They are not accepted through email.
What would make a good bulletin?
Bulletins are intended to be brief. The types of bulletins appropriate for 澳门六合彩官网直播 Today include, but are not limited to:
- Faculty/staff accolades

- On-campus lectures

Bulletins submitted and posted on 澳门六合彩官网直播 Today are intended for faculty, staff members and retirees; they should not include announcements intended to reach student audiences. They should also not include messages from outside vendors or businesses, or messages about events not hosted or sponsored by 澳门六合彩官网直播.
How to create a bulletin
Please note: This posting has been updated to reflect changes implemented as part of the Drupal 10 migration. There is no longer a page type for Bulletins. Please follow the instructions below to submit your bulletin for consideration for 澳门六合彩官网直播 Today.
Bulletins can be created by 澳门六合彩官网直播 CMS authors and published by 澳门六合彩官网直播 CMS publishers. Once published, a bulletin should be displayed in the 澳门六合彩官网直播 Today online portal for a maximum of two weeks.
- Click on Add content in the administration menu and click on Page.
- Choose your Site and click Add to Group.
- Enter the Title of your bulletin.
- Enter the URL slug for your bulletin, including the year or unique identifier for regularly occurring or annual events. For example, "bronco-bash-2024" or "gold-gathering-spring24" would be acceptable URL slugs.
- Enter a 1-2 sentence summary of your bulletin into the Summary field.
- Navigate to Region 2, and select Add Component. Choose the Text component.
- Enter the Text of the bulletin into the text component. 澳门六合彩官网直播 Today accepts bulletins with no more than 800 characters.
- Optionally, you can add Link text and provide a URL to accompany your bulletin to direct readers to a webpage for more information, to sign up, etc. Within the text component, enter your Link text on its own line. Then select the chain link icon in the top bar of the text component, paste the Link URL in the field that appears and click the green checkmark.
- In the Tags field, type Bulletin and select the pre-populated option.
- Click the Save button at the bottom of the page. Once you save, the bulletin will need to proceed through the moderation process before it becomes published. Publishers who are creating a bulletin or reviewing a bulletin submitted by an author will need to complete steps 11 and 12 after saving the draft of the bulletin.
- (Publishers only) To enter a Sunrise and Sunset date and time, open up the Scheduling options dropdown menu, which will only appear in the editing interface once a draft of the page has been saved. Select the date and time you would like the bulletin to publish. Then advance that date no more than 14 days later, and set the Unpublish on date. Note: You will need to select AM or PM.
- (Publishers only) Set the Publish state to Published and the Unpublish state to Archived.
Bulletins including any component or content other than the permitted title, 800-character maximum of text and single link will not be considered for 澳门六合彩官网直播 Today.
What happens after a bulletin is published?
All published bulletins will appear in the 澳门六合彩官网直播 Today online portal. From this repository, the Office of Marketing and Strategic Communications will also select items to feature in the weekly 澳门六合彩官网直播 Today email sent to faculty, staff and retirees.
