Working Groups
The Editorial Style Guidelines Working Group will define and standardize the verbal expression of the integrated institution across all internal and external communications, including web content, academic materials, marketing and communications, and media relations. The group will develop a comprehensive editorial style guide that will serve as the official reference for editorial standards and usage conventions. These guidelines will ensure consistency, clarity, and brand alignment across all written communications.
The Together Website Working Group manages the website that provides updates and information about the integration. Their focus is positioning the website as a single source of truth for keeping the community informed with the latest integration news and developments.
