INTRODUCTION 3 The University of Health Sciences and Pharmacy in St. Louis Style Guide ABOUT THE contains editorial guidelines to be used in the preparation of copy for STYLE GUIDE print and digital publications including all forms of advertising materials, booklets, brochures, flyers, invitations, newsletters, programs and websites, among others. Adherence to the University’s editorial style ensures the production of effective and consistent communications that accurately reflect the University’s brand. In general, the University editorial style follows Webster’s New World College Dictionary, which may be accessed online, and The Associated Press (AP) Stylebook for all communications. Faculty and staff who frequently draft communications on behalf of the University are strongly encouraged to purchase a current edition of the AP Stylebook. While the AP Stylebook is expansive, there are some points of style that are not covered. There are also some areas in which the University chooses to diverge from The Associated Press. The University’s editorial style guide addresses those topics as well as frequently asked questions of style and grammar. If you have a style question that is not addressed in this guide, consult The AP Stylebook or Webster’s New World College Dictionary. If you are unable to find an answer, please contact Danielle Unzicker, MBA, assistant vice president for communications and chief marketing officer, at [email protected].

STYLE GUIDE 11 University of Health Sciences and Pharmacy in St. Louis is committed to WRITING WITH fostering an environment that protects and values differences within a INCLUSIVE LANGUAGE diverse community. We believe the diverse cultures, values, beliefs, interests, experiences, viewpoints and backgrounds of our students, faculty, staff and alumni should be celebrated through our mission of educating world-class health care providers, innovative research and serving our wider communities. The language we use when speaking about diversity and inclusivity matters. This is not meant to be exhaustive or definitive but is meant to serve as a point of reference for how we communicate about diversity and inclusivity. Rather than rigid guidelines, we hope to create a framework for you to use language that is empowering and respectful. For further assistance, contact members of the Office of Diversity and Inclusion, style manuals such as Associated Press Stylebook, and diversity glossaries online such as Diversity and Social Justice: A Glossary of Working Definitions by University of Massachusetts at Lowell or Sierra Club’s Glossary of Terms for Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. Published by the Office of Marketing and Communications, September 2020. STYLE GUIDE 12 From emails to marketing to social media to websites and other forms HOW WE DEFINE of communication, all work should be written appropriately to address INCLUSIVE LANGUAGE the audience in which it was intended with attention to language that acknowledges diversity, conveys respect to all people, is sensitive to differences and promotes equitable opportunities. Communication that includes words, phrases or tones that demean, insult or exclude people based on their membership within a certain group or because of a particular attribute is unacceptable and is in direct conflict with the University’s mission, vision and values. Published by the Office of Marketing and Communications, September 2020. STYLE GUIDE 13 We have compiled best practices and general guidelines from a variety of BEST PRACTICES AND higher learning institutions that reflect the University’s commitment to diversity, GUIDELINES inclusion and equity. • When possible, consult with the individual group who is the subject of any communications work to honor their preferred language and terminology. • Avoid overemphasis on attributes or identities such as race, gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, disability, religion, age or immigration or veteran status. - In instances where it is necessary to reference an individual’s attribute or specific identity, use a person-first language approach. When referring to a person, particularly those with a disability, place emphasis on the individual rather than identify them exclusively as their disability. A person who is blind or visually impaired. Not a blind person. - Two important questions to ask when producing written communication are, would you include a particular characteristic or identity for any group? What is being accomplished by noting the characteristic or identity? • Look for authentic ways to include, portray and integrate equity and inclusion issues and diverse populations into stories and other written materials. • Do not use offensive and derogatory terms, including terms derived from the identity of a specific group, outdated

  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

  • 2017-2018 Annual Report Our Pharmacy Community Consistently Strives for Excellence and We Are Proud of What We’Ve Accomplished in the Past Year
    THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF PHARMACY 2017-2018 Annual Report Our pharmacy community consistently strives for excellence and we are proud of what we’ve accomplished in the past year. Improving medications and medication-related health outcomes remains at the core of everything we do. Our students and alumni are motivated to make a difference, and as you can see from this report, they are doing just that. This year, our students were recognized on-campus and around the country for their dedication to this profession and making a difference in the lives of their patients. Two student organizations received university awards for their community service efforts and passion for enhancing diversity, while undergraduate and professional students were celebrated for their commitment to their studies, research and the community. Our students weren’t the only ones who experienced success this year; our faculty and staff expanded on the college’s strong research and outreach efforts. The college ranked 12th in the National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding and exceeded our seven-year average of peer-reviewed publications. Our partnerships flourished and we were able to provide more support to the community than ever before through presentations, live performances, screenings and medication therapy management reviews. Of course, none of this hard work would be possible if it weren’t for our incredible alumni, donors and friends. This year, donations to The Ohio State Fund for Pharmacy were up more than 7% and we reached our annual giving goal two months early. While the pages that follow showcase just a snapshot of all our accomplishments from the past year, I hope you feel a sense of Buckeye pride as you read through the report.
