Help Us Show the Community What Southwest Is Accomplishing
Every week, students earn credentials, get hired, transfer to universities, win competitions, complete programs, secure internships, and accomplish goals that deserve to be seen. Employers launch partnerships with us. Programs receive grants. New cohorts start. Important work happens across the college every day.
Marketing & Communications isn't always there when those moments happen.
You are.
This form helps us identify the stories, photos, announcements, and milestones that demonstrate the impact Southwest is making in our region. If something would make you proud to tell a friend, employer, parent, alum, or community member about the college, we want to hear about it.
Don't worry about writing a news story.
A sentence or two is enough. Tell us who, what, and why it matters. We'll follow up for details, schedule interviews, take photos if needed, and handle the writing and promotion.
