Jan,
The most popular thing that we do along the lines of promoting research is to
list new awards in our monthly newsletter. We list the PI's (and co-PI's),
their departments or center affiliations, the title of the project, and the
awarding agency. There are two things that people read in each issue - the
list of awards and the cartoon. There is usually only one thing they call to
comment about - the list of awards!
We have recently decided to eliminate our monthly newsletter as a separate
campus publication and to put the list of awards and any other pressing
research related items in the campus "employee" newspaper (as opposed to the
student newspaper). This will hopefully save us some time (doing more with
less!!). The producers of the newspaper were thrilled to have our material,
especially the list of awardees.
