The Office of Community Relations is typically the first point of contact between Southwest Oklahoma media and Cameron University. The office's primary task is to assist area newspapers, radio and television stations in their coverage of university activities. With rare exceptions, Community Relations develops and distributes all Cameron University media releases.
What We Do
Through its relationship with the media, the Office of Community Relations promotes public awareness of Cameron University. It also answers public inquiries about university programs and encourages residents and potential students to actively consider the university as a source of adult education.
Community Relations assists the university's educational and administrative offices in the development of promotional materials and is available to university staff in an advisory role for media and public relations information. It assists the university's alumni relations office by editing its alumni publication, Cameron Magazine.
The office serves as a clearinghouse for much of the information appearing on CUTV, the campus' cable television channel, and it produces and distributes a monthly calendar highlighting events occurring at Cameron. This calendar is provided free of charge to faculty, staff and area media, as well as being included in this website. Community Relations also programs information appearing on Cameron's electronic message board located near 38th & Gore in Lawton.
Community Relations continues to explore new advancements in computer technology, including the electronic delivery of press releases to Southwest Oklahoma media via e-mail and the World Wide Web. The office is also responsible for updating events and stories on the university's main web page.
