UCR AP Style Guide
University Relations uses the Associated Press (AP) Stylebook as a guide for journalistic copy. We've also assembled an extensive stylebook to provide guidance in editorial instances unique to UCR and higher education institutions that may differ from or aren't addressed by the AP Stylebook. The UCR Stylebook also highlights AP style guidelines frequently used at UCR.
Power Claims
University Relations has created a central editorial resource for campus communicators to access important strategic university messaging. This includes UCR power claims that communicate the university's substantial impact, quality, and effectiveness among higher education institutions.
