The Office of Marketing and Communications staff has a Media Relations team of experienced professionals who are dedicated to meeting the needs of journalists. The Media Relations staff can answer questions about MSM, as well as arrange for and coordinate interviews with MSM experts. The staff also can secure locations for film, video and photo shoots.

If you are seeking an official response from MSM, please contact the Marketing and Communications Executive Director Cherie A. Richardson at 404.752.1917 or crichardson@msm.edu . If you are interested in being added to the news release distribution list, e-mail us at marcom@msm.edu.

MSM faculty members have expertise in hundreds of fields of study. Many are nationally and internationally recognized for their research, and many others have developed partnerships with local and regional organizations. These experts can provide media representatives with background and commentary on a wide variety of topics.

If you need a resource for a topic of interest, or if you have trouble contacting a source, please call the MSM Media Relations Office at 404.752.1752. We look forward to working with you!
