Daily Digest and Listservs

There has been an update to the events and announcements submission process. All submissions of events and announcements for the website and/or Daily Digest need to be submitted by 10 a.m., two business days prior to the desired promotion date. This is a change to the previous deadline, which was 10 a.m., one business day prior to the desired promotion date. Please note: If you are promoting a Saturday or Sunday event, the deadline to submit for promotion on Friday is Wednesday at 10 a.m.

What is the Daily Digest?

The Daily Digest is Bryn Mawr College’s daily e-newsletter sent out to all of campus, listing important information in regards to upcoming or day-of Announcements and Events. The Daily Digest arrives by email just after midnight each weekday during the academic year.

The goals of the Daily Digest are:

To decrease the quantity of mass emails each person receives in their inbox
To increase visibility and awareness of campus happenings by encouraging email readership by having everything in one place

How can I submit my Event or Announcement to the Daily Digest?

The Daily Digest is made up of a compilation of Events and Announcements submitted by members of the Bryn Mawr College community. Anyone can submit a request for consideration.

All submissions of events and announcements for the website and/or Daily Digest need to be submitted by 10 a.m., two business days prior to the desired promotion date. This is a change to the previous deadline, which was 10 a.m., one business day prior to the desired promotion date. Please note: If you are promoting a Saturday or Sunday event, the deadline to submit for promotion on Friday is Wednesday at 10 a.m.

The location and catering should be approved by Conferences and Events prior to submission.

A note about listserv usage:

Prior to the Daily Digest, individuals used mailing lists (listservs) to send mass emails. These listservs still exist and include many niche lists as well as others that encompass large segments of the Bryn Mawr community.

Lists for faculty, staff, each undergraduate class, and each graduate school are automatically maintained. These lists are intended to be used in a very limited fashion for important information that pertains to all members of each list. Examples would include (but are not limited to) messages from the President's Office, housing information for students, human resources updates for faculty and staff, or faculty governance information for the faculty. Solicitation or fundraising of any kind is prohibited.

College Communications does not moderate or administer campus listservs. For more information on listservs, go here.
