For Faculty and Staff

Media Requests

The News and Content team can provide support and counsel if you are contacted by the media as part of your work at the university. We can work with you on the best way to handle requests. Refer a journalist requesting information or an interview directly to our office and we will handle their inquiry.

If you are contacted by the media, please forward their request to Molly Blancett blancett@uoregon.edu.
