Have a Story Idea?

The purpose of W&M News is to tell the stories of the university community to both internal and external audiences in an effort to highlight the people, programs, traditions and values that make W&M unique.

W&M News welcomes story ideas from members of the university community and we encourage you to submit your suggestions.

Submission Guidelines

In our work we utilize the following formats and resources:

Stories

W&M News operates as a digital publication and uses journalistic standards, including Associated Press style with some W&M-specific modifications. For consistency across our stories we edit out uncited/unattributed information.

Photos

Photography services may be requested from the university's photography team. William & Mary's official photography is housed in Canto, the university’s digital asset management system and may be accessed through single sign on (SSO) using university credentials. For historical photos of W&M, contact the university archives

Social Media

The University Communications team manages the university's official Facebook, X and Instagram accounts, and our team is ready to share our best recommendations for using social media at William & Mary.

Video

W&M News works closely with the University Marketing video team. Departments and programs interested in utilizing the video team's services must submit a request for review.
