Referring to ISU Extension and Outreach in News Releases and Media Packets

With the transition to ISU Extension and Outreach, it is only natural for there to be questions about proper usage. As a general rule of thumb, the first reference should read: Iowa State University Extension and Outreach. Subsequent references should be: ISU Extension.Do not abbreviate using ISUE or ISUEO. Specialists are still referred to as ISU Extension specialists.
