Tips on submitting articles

  • Ensure the article is relevant to University staff. Topics such as a Faculty's new initiative or an important announcement to staff make good Network articles.
  • Aim for approximately 200-250 words
  • Spell out all acronyms in full
  • Use people's full and correct titles (for example, Professor Joe Bloggs not Mr Joe Bloggs)
  • Include a contact detail or weblink at the bottom of your article for people who would like more information
  • Try to make your articles interesting and informative, yet concise and to the point
  • For further information contact:
    Communications Editor, Jasmine De Boni, jasmine.deboni@deakin.edu.au or
    Web Editor/Writer, Danielle Crisp, danielle.crisp@deakin.edu.au.
