Campus Wide Emails
How do I send a campus-wide email?
The procedure for getting your campus announcement distributed is as follows:
Your
message will need to be sent to each mailing list address that
corresponds to your intended audience. Announcements going to the
undergraduate students will need to be sent to 4 addresses.
Announcements to the entire campus will need to be sent to 6 addresses.
This message being sent to faculty and staff has been sent to 2
addresses.
The mailing list addresses are:
pc-2013@lists.providence.edu
pc-2014@lists.providence.edu
pc-2015@lists.providence.edu
pc-2016@lists.providence.edu
pc-faculty@lists.providence.edu
pc-staff@lists.providence.edu
Note: The pc-faculty/pc-staff classification is a very loose classification; it is not based on any HR information. The pc-faculty list is composed of those employees that work in academic departments. The pc-staff list is composed of those employees that work in administrative departments.
Please
keep in mind that your message will be distributed exactly as it is
received by the mailing list. Do not include any type of instructions
to the mailing list moderator(s).
Messages will be
subject to review by one or more moderators before they are distributed
to the list members. When a message is approved by a moderator, it is
immediately distributed to the list members. This system does not allow for scheduling of a message to be sent in the “future”. Messages
sent to the mailing lists during working hours could experience near
real time distribution. Messages sent to the mailing lists outside of
normal working hours should expect delivery delays.
This system does not allow for adjustments on who the message is being sent “From:”. For example, graduate assistants would not be able to ask for a message to be sent “From:” their supervisor.
Text formatting is able to be included in campus announcements, and even pictures and attachments (within reasonable limits).
