Mizzou Info Guidelines

Mizzou Info is a weekly internal advertising newsletter to support university units in promoting events; opportunities related to research, academics and volunteering; and other topics relevant to the Mizzou community. 

Mizzou Info is emailed to all faculty, staff and students at Mizzou every Wednesday (excluding the weeks of Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year’s Day and Spring Break; other dates may be added annually). Each week's newsletter is also available on the Mizzou Info website. 

Payment is available via a university MoCode or credit card. 

All Mizzou Info submissions are reviewed and edited by Mizzou Marketing and Communications to ensure they comply with Mizzou brand and style guidelines and the mass email and accessibility policies.
