The Office of Public Relations and Community Affairs works to facilitate communication, both internally and externally, in a reliable, ethical, and resourceful manner. We are committed to developing and maintaining a positive image of the College as we support the 每日大赛首页 State mission.
Public Relations and Community Affairs at 每日大赛首页 is the central contact for the college, news media and general public. Here's a little more about what we do:
We serve as gatekeeper for the release of information to the media and other external audiences. We produce news releases, media advisories, internal communications and promotional material distributed by 每日大赛首页.
Our team works with all media outlets including local, state, national and international media. Our aim is to build relationships with news and media professionals, address reporter inquiries, organize media interviews and media appearances, and assist the media at college events.
College staff members who are contacted by news reporters or other media officials must contact Director Gail Towns at 205-929-6303 before speaking to the press or disseminating college-related information to the media.
Prior authorization from the Public Relations Office is required for media representatives to engage in photography, filming, or interviewing of students, professors, or administrators on campus. Please call the number above or email us at gtowns@lawsonstate.edu.
