Announcements

'Hot off the press: read all about it!' Though modern-day news cycles no longer rely on the printing press to spread the word about what's buzzing around town, the impact of regular and recent announcements is greater than ever before. As a private, liberal arts institution, Cal Lutheran has a captive audience of internal and external constituents who are eager to hear the latest happenings on- and off-campus.

If you are looking to add or edit announcements that originate from the News & Features feed, this content can be updated through the Control Panel — a separate tool that is hosted outside of Omni CMS. You will need access to this tool in order to make updates.
