For example, instead of saying \u201cSchool of Engineering,\u201d we say \u201cENG.\u201d This shorthand helps speed up our internal communication and ensures clarity when discussing various projects or clients.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/spreadsheets\/d\/1y_i_875lSJrRgxalIMjXAcjuMR0FUJEyHXxg0jpLczU\/edit?usp=sharing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" class=\"button-secondary\">Department, School Acronyms<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>University Communicators for Releases<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/prsocial\/about-and-services\/communicators-across-campuses\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" class=\"button-secondary\">Communicators Across Campus<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/prsocial\/social-media-directory\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" class=\"button-secondary\">BU Social Media Directory<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>BU Communicators Group<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:marcom@bu.edu\" class=\"button-secondary\">Email to Learn More<\/a><\/p>\n<h4>BU Social Media Communicators Group<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"mailto:social@bu.edu\" class=\"button-secondary\">Email to learn more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At Boston University, our central communications team is dedicated to shaping a unified and impactful message that aligns with the University&#8217;s goals.
