Office of Communications

Hamline's newsroom team

At Hamline, we prepare students to be bold in pursuit of their goals and aspirations to lead the next generation. As Minnesota’s first university, we are deeply rooted in the liberal arts and its value in all areas of business, entrepreneurship, justice, government, arts, sciences and humanities.

Hamline’s news team within the communications office partners with the campus community including faculty, staff, alumni, and students along with media, community leaders, and influencers locally and nationally to tell the powerful stories of how Hamline University is taking the lead.

Where can I find news about Hamline?

The Hamline News page features profiles of students, alumni, faculty and staff sharing their stories and recognition of accomplishments. Whether it’s a story about Hamline’s latest national Truman Scholar or faculty research that’s getting national attention, we tell stories that reflect our signature Hamline spirit and build pride in our community’s accomplishments.

Hometown news release

Hamline University would like to share the news of student achievement with hometown newspapers, online, and on social media. We use a service called Merit to help us do this type of outreach. Students enrolled in 2019 or before and recent transfer students have to sign up for the service. Just fill out the Merit form.

All announcements must adhere to the Hamline University posting and canvassing policy.
