See how our current work and research is bringing new thinking and new solutions to some of today's biggest challenges.

News and Events Submissions

Share your news and events with our team!

We tell stories about CALS research, education, events and outreach — including peer-reviewed publications, grants and other awards, as well as how the work of our faculty, staff and students has a meaningful impact on local, national and international communities.

Our team will consider your ideas for potential story development and amplification via both internal and external communication outlets — including internal and external newsletters, the CALS Newsroom, the Cornell Chronicle, Cornell media relations and relevant social media channels.

Cornell employees can submit their ideas for both news stories and event announcements via our intake form below. Alumni and other community members can email us at cals-comm [at] cornell.edu with your name, email, phone number and a description of the news and events you wish to share.

Additional guidelines for the types of stories we highlight appear below the submission form, and we invite you to review them to make sure we receive the most salient details. Please ensure accuracy of your submitted details as they will be published as submitted.
