About
University of Illinois Public Affairs
The Office of Public Affairs strategically shares the stories of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign with the state of Illinois, the nation and the world. We communicate through speeches, stories, news releases, images, videos, designs and technology. We help others tell the story of Illinois through tools, training, support and services to communications professionals across campus.
As the campus-level strategic communications unit, we also manage the university’s website, lead university-wide announcements, manage the university social media presence, respond to national surveys and handle Freedom of Information Act requests, in addition to a wide array of special projects.
Communications Vehicles
Public Affairs is responsible for developing strategies to make the best use of campus communications vehicles, as well as day-to-day management of these channels.
The entire list of the communications vehicles managed by Public Affairs is available online, as well as services and resources to assist campus communicators.
