Tips for Submitting a News Article

 

Posting a news article is a terrific way to gain publicity through Pi Lambda Phi.  Our website generates over 25,000 hits per month.  A brief well constructed article will help generate interest for upcoming events, or tell other alumni what they're missing.  Here's several tips for maximizing your audience appeal:

Find your theme - What message are you trying to convey?  What is your subject?  What do you want to accomplish by writing this article?  Make these as clear as possible throughout your message.

Make sure you cover the basic questions.  If an event - who is invited?  Where?  What is the event?  Why are you doing it?  How does a reader get involved?  If your doing a post event article - How many attended?  What was accomplished?  Add quotes and relevant statistics if available.  These will add life to your article.  Also, include pictures, this is a big help for attracting attention.

Now that you have your basic message together.  Edit the message for content, spelling, and grammar.  Need help?  Submit it and IHQ will help you out.
