King’s Today is an e-mail digest sent every weekday morning during the academic year.  The service began during the 2014-15 academic year to provide a centralized, coordinated system for managing internal communications while also limiting the over-use of group e-mail addresses.

In response to reader suggestions, several new policies have been made to make the publication less repetitive and more reader-friendly and encompassing.

Some helpful reminders for faculty, staff, and students who would like to submit items for King’s Today consideration:

  1.  The item should be of general interest to the entire campus community – faculty, staff, and students. If an item does not meet this criteria, it will be returned to the sender with a recommendation of a more appropriate channel of communication.
  2. Items for consideration should be sent in a timely manner (at least a few days prior to an event) either directly to kingstoday@kings.edu or by completing a web-based submission form. 
  3. All graphic submissions, including photographs, should be in a jpeg or pdf format and be limited to horizontal layouts with a maximum size of 5 MB.  Please do not submit vertical graphics that double as posters.  Submission of graphics that do not meet the standards will result in either a delay in publication date or the information in the graphic will be reformatted to a word description.
  4. Submitted group photos should clearly identify people in photo from left to right.  If photo is of a larger group, participants should be identified by row, from left to right in each row.
  5. In most cases, a submission that has already been sent via a group e-mail will not be repeated in King’s Today.
  6. Further updates regarding helpful hints will be provided as they become necessary.
