Faces of the Pack guidelines
The goal of Faces of the Pack pieces is to highlight students and members of The Wolf Pack Family with compelling stories. These stories help prospective students and prospective faculty see themselves at the University by covering individuals from every background and across all colleges and schools. We want to offer a candid look into the featured Pack members’ lives, highlighting more than just accomplishments. Information about any campus services taken advantage of by the featured Pack member should also be included to help get the word out about these services.
