Request a Provost Communication

Public Affairs leads and coordinates executive communications on behalf of the Office of the Provost. Provost communications include speeches, videos, quotes for news releases or marketing materials, brochure or program messages, and congratulatory letters. University officials and CCOs may submit a request for consideration.

Things to know

Public Affairs does not manage or coordinate provost appearances. If your request requires the provost to attend an event, please fill out the form at https://go.illinois.edu/srleaderrequest. It is best to do this as far in advance as possible.

Clarifying the goals and vision for the communication is necessary to produce the best results.

Allison Vance, Content Strategy Director, coordinates all communications for the Office of the Provost. If you have questions or require more information, email her at acvance@illinois.edu.

Considerations

Although the provost is committed to supporting a variety of events at Illinois, not all requests can be approved due to scheduling, availability and other constraints.
