The Media Relations Group and the Broadcast Group work together to achieve visibility in the media for academic and administrative units of the university, with emphasis on national and international media.

The Media Relations Group obtains print coverage by identifying opportunities in breaking news and trend stories and by placing news, features, and faculty opinion essays in newspapers, magazines, and other publications. The Media Relations Group also produces the University Journal, the faculty and staff newspaper.

The Broadcast Group places faculty experts discussing breaking news or University research on local, national, and international television and radio programs. The Broadcast Group also

oversees movie, commercial, and special filming projects on campus and produces public service announcements and Northwestern Newsfeed , a radio actuality service featuring faculty commentary.

Both groups are involved with public relations planning for special events, crisis public relations, and strategic planning in public relations.

Representatives of the press and visual media are requested to send their queries to press@sauniv.com for further details.
