Have an item you want published in the Cornerstone? Employees receive the newsletter
every Monday, Wednesday and Friday (except for university holidays and closures).
Students receive the newsletter once a week on Wednesdays. If your unit has a Public
Information Officer, the information should be submitted through that person. If your
unit does not have a PIO, news items are submitted to the Cornerstone Submission Form. All events are coordinated through 25Live; check the option to have it published to the events calendar so it gets included
in the Cornerstone. Still have questions? Reach out to uaf-university-relations@alaska.edu.
