FIT Direct

 
FIT Direct is published monthly by Communications and External Relations to inform the college community of events and developments at FIT. If you would like to submit articles to the electronic newsletter, please read the following guidelines and use the links provided below. Due to the volume of submissions, non-time-sensitive material may be held for future issues. We thank you for your participation. Also check out:

Submission Guidelines:
To be considered for publication, entries should be of interest to the general college community and fall into one of three categories:

  • Events (any activity or happening open to the entire college community, such as lectures or exhibitions)
  • Announcements (short-term, critical information such as building closings, deadlines for submitting personnel forms, and condolences)
  • News (such as faculty awards or publications, contests, new acquisitions, or curriculum developments)

Submission Requirements:

  • No editorializing (articles may not express individual opinions)
  • No classifieds (such as house rentals, sublets, items for sale, etc.)
  • Before clicking “submit,” be sure that all names are spelled correctly

Submission Tips:

  • Check with your co-workers to insure that you are not duplicating anyone else’s submission
  • Check with your department head or supervisor to insure that your entry is approved for college-wide distribution
  • Enter phone numbers as five-digit extensions (ex: x74700)
  • Enter months as text (ex: April 4, 2006)
  • In describing news items, please include all relevant dates. For example: “The competition took place in April, 2006,” and “the new facility opened its doors on April 6, 2006.”

Deadlines:

  • To be included in the next newsletter, submissions should be received by the 20th of each month.
  • Please do not submit event information more than two months prior to the date of the event
