Scope and Contents
The subject files of the University News Service date from 1942 to 1997 and measure about 57.0 linear feet. They are arranged in a single, alphabetical series. Within each file, materials are arranged chronologically.
Files generally consist of news releases prepared by UNS staff, supplemented with related newspaper clippings and other published material. The title of each file indicates the subject and date span.
Historical Note
The University News Service, as of 2002, is a program of the Office of University Communications and Outreach. Its purpose is to help OUCO fulfill its mission of “promoting awareness, understanding, and support for the University’s missions of teaching, research, and service, both within the University community and among the general public.” UNS staff members supply news and information about the University to print, broadcast, and electronic media.
An office of external communications has existed in some form at the University since 1896, the first year in which the annual general catalog refers to university publications. Since then, the office has undergone numerous organizational changes.
