  • Texas Tech University Office of Communications & Marketing
    Texas Tech University Office of Communications & Marketing Writers Style Guide A comprehensive guide for content producers in the Office of Communications & Marketing to enhance writing skills and ensure continuity and clarity of message for Texas Tech University. Chief Marketing & Communications Officer: Matt Dewey Guidelines for Writers June 24, 2021 The student body at Texas Tech University is as diverse as it has ever been, with the university recently reaching the enrollment requirement of Hispanic Serving Institution designation thanks to a Hispanic population that totals more than 25 percent of the overall student body. Just as diverse as the student body is every other aspect of Texas Tech, from the colleges and departments of study to the buildings, student organizations and intricate details encompassing every square inch of the campus that makes it such a unique and rewarding place to study and work. As content producers, we are tasked with telling the story of Texas Tech and its people – the faculty, staff, students, research endeavors, community engagement and so on. Doing so requires a great attention to detail, a task that can be daunting given all the various aspects of the university we encounter each day. In order to tell that story in as clear and concise a manner as possible, a clear set of writing style and grammatical guidelines is necessary. The Associated Press Stylebook is an excellent starting point and should be used in most instances, but it does not get into the intricate details of life on the Texas Tech campus. Therefore, it became necessary to develop an enhanced stylebook specifically detailed for Texas Tech.

    ALUMNI PROFILES From All Four Corners Smithmoore P. MYERS ’39 Spokane, Washington n every school or university you will find a few exceptional individuals who have made a truly defining contribution to the life and character of their institution. I At Gonzaga Law School, Smitty Myers is one of those individuals. Born in Cheyenne, Wyoming in 1914, Smitty Myers came to Spokane at the age of three with his mother, his six-year-old brother Robert, and his nine-year-old sister Nellie. If young Smitty and his siblings had one great advantage in life it was their mother Julia, a single mother and a woman of tremendous strength and spirit who was devoted to her children and their welfare. Although his parents had divorced when Smitty was quite young, his mother went out of her way to ensure that their father remained a regular part of the children’s lives. During his first five years in Spokane, Smitty attended five different grade schools. As one might expect, he excelled academi- cally except for one anomalous “F” he received as a first grader in, of all subjects, public speaking. Smitty’s mother and teacher conferred and concluded the grade was due to the young boy’s shyness and not his lack of ability. Given Smitty’s subsequent prowess in debate, legal argumentation, and public speaking, it would seem their assessment of the situation was accurate. Within a year of arriving in Spokane, Smitty’s mother found employment in the women’s shoe department of the Crescent, a job she would have for the next two decades.

For over 165 years, an extraordinary number of forces have made us instinctively believe that photographs are windows on reality—even when reason tells us otherwise.” — Carl Chiarenza, 2013 lecture excerpt A photograph of you is not you. It is, in fact, an illusion. That simple viewpoint is perhaps the cornerstone of famed photographer Carl Chiarenza's body of work—and his role as a mentor to other artists. “It's not unreasonable for people who are interested in photography to accept what has been broadcast since the 1830s, which is that the photograph captures reality, actuality,” Carl says. "Mulligan Print," by Carl Chiarenza. Carl's work has been shown around the world and can be found in the collections of more than 50 museums, including The Getty Museum, Philadelphia Museum of Art, The Museum of Modern Art in New York City, The Art Institute of Chicago, and Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris.
