UNMC Vitals

Vitals is a great communication tool for the following content:

• Interprofessional communication for registered student organizations and academies. A registered student organization is one that has an approved application for Student Organizations on file with the Student Life Involvement and Development Office (SLIDO).
• Organizational meetings and events such as faculty-led discussions, fundraisers, guest speakers, movie showings, musical events, and interprofessional student-funded events.
• Communications sent by UNMC administrative bodies (examples include Strategic Communications, McGoogan Library, and Alumni Association.)
• Vitals cannot be used to advertise items for sale or rent, including houses, books, etc.

How to Submit Content to Vitals

Registered student organizations and campus organizations can submit their events/announcements to Vitals up to three weeks ahead of the event (ensuring that it will run in two total editions of UNMC Vitals). Submissions must be made by Friday at 3 p.m. to be included in the following week’s edition.  

Events can be submitted to UNMC Vitals via one of two routes:

• Student organizations or campus departments can publish an event in ENGAGE. Published events automatically will be included in Vitals up to two weeks ahead of the event. 
• Student organizations or campus departments can directly email Vitals their event/announcement details.
  • Specify which edition(s) of UNMC Vitals you would like to include your submission in: Omaha, Lincoln, Kearney, Norfolk, Scottsbluff, online students.
  • Include a UNMC ENGAGE event link or an RSVP form so you are able to collect names of interested students and follow up as needed.
  • Include an image in your submission to draw more attention to your event. Images must meet color contrast standards. Any text on an image must also be included in the event desription that accompanies the image.
