  1. Special status association member lists available from AYY

All special status associations whose membership fees have been payable through Oodi along with the AYY membership fee may request their member lists from AYY between October 10 and 16 at tietotekniikka(at)ayy.fi and after October 17 from the administrative manager at johanna.pietilainen(at)ayy.fi.

The member list includes each member’s name, municipality of residence and e-mail address.

 

  1. Communications 101 for the weekly newsletter

The weekly newsletter is published during the academic year on Mondays in three languages. Materials must be sent to tiedotteet@ayy.fi on the Thursday of the previous week by 10 AM. The information officer will then edit the content and send it for translation. If proficiency in a specific language is essential for your notice, state it in the text explicitly, e.g. “The seminar will be in Finnish!” to make sure it will be included in the other language versions. The translations are available for viewing at ayy.fi on Monday – take advantage of them with your Facebook events, for example. Texts delivered in English will be published in English in all language versions.

The optimal length of a notice is about two paragraphs + link for more information. This amounts to about 100 words, 750 characters or 10 lines. The more concise the text, the better. Remember to give your text a catchy title!

By default, one notice is published in the newsletter once. If there are few other notices, one news item may be published several times. The student union’s own announcements and those of organizations operating in the immediate sphere of the union take priority over other news. You can state a desired week of publication for your notice. Also, let us know if the time of publication is crucial for some promotional event, for example. Without any special information/wishes, notices will be published in the newsletter about 1-2 weeks before the big date (i.e. date of the event, deadline for sign-ups).

Questions? Feedback? Suggestions? Contact AYY information officer Henna Palonen at tiedottaja(ä)ayy.fi or 0505209440.
