Public / Media Relations

The Office of Marketing and Communications happily assists local, regional, and national news outlets in reporting Rocky-related stories, as well as generating stories about student, faculty, or College accomplishments or recognition. If you are a member of the media, please reach out to our team at media@rocky.edu or 406.657.1024.

OMC serves as liaison to the news outlets and to many of the College’s audiences. With the help of OMC, faculty and staff offer professional perspectives that represent their points and the College most effectively. The team will help craft op-ed material for media and supplies useful ways to share RMC news.

Note to faculty and staff: If you wish to suggest an article or media release, submit a media request. To meet media deadlines for event publicity, press releases are issued only if all information is received two weeks prior to an event.

Note to student organizations: Student organizations are welcome to request promotional assistance through the Office of Marketing & Communications. OMC sends press releases regarding happenings and/or events that are executed by or held directly in tandem with official College departments; academic or athletic. It is the policy of the Office of Marketing & Communications to send press releases only on happenings and/or events directly sponsored by the College. However, we cannot guarantee coverage. Even if your student organization’s happening is sponsored by an official College department, we have the right to refuse coverage.

Student organizations are also welcome to add their events to the online RMC calendar. We encourage student organizations to promote their happenings and/or events via their respective platforms (social media, newsletters, etc.).
