The Office of College Communications is putting together the 2005/2006 Metropolitan State College of Denver Experts Guide, which the media use when they need experts to give an added perspective to news stories. The office distributes the guide to local and national reporters, editors and producers. To see the online version of the 2003/2004 guide, go to http://www.mscd.edu/news/media/expert/index.htm.

The office is seeking faculty who agree to be included in the guide, which means they may be contacted directly by members of the media and asked to be quoted or to provide background information on a specific topic.

If you would like to be included in the new Experts Guide, please fill out the form below and return it no later than Friday, May 6, to:
