We believe in the power of stories and the transformative impact they can have. While we've always tried to include these inspiring stories in THE Community's College Magazine, we need your help in connecting with students.
Do you have a story to share or know of a student we should interview? We'd love to hear from you! Your incredible work changes lives every day, and we're eager to capture those moments. After all, who better to tell our brand story than our own students? Together, we'll showcase the immense potential within each student and and inspire others with the impact of an EICC education.

How to Work with Us
All new projects begin by submitting a Marketing Request. This form ensures we have the basic information we need to evaluate your project, including:
- The audience you’re trying to reach
- Your goals and key message
- Timelines and deadlines
- Desired deliverables (e.g. poster, ad, social post, etc.)
The more details you provide—who, what, when, where, why, and how—the smoother the process will be. Missing information or last-minute changes can delay your project.
Especially for printed materials, allow a minimum of 6–8 weeks for completion, depending on the scope. Some larger or more complex projects (like video or multi-channel campaigns) may require more lead time.
After you submit a request, a team member will reach out within 5–7 business days to clarify details, discuss next steps, or set up a kickoff conversation.
Project Prioritization
We prioritize marketing projects that:
- Directly support student recruitment, enrollment, and retention.
- Enhance the visibility and impact of college-wide programs and initiatives.
- Align with EICC’s strategic goals and brand guidelines.
Projects that are informational, internal-only, or for smaller audiences may be supported on a case-by-case basis depending on bandwidth and deadlines.

- Graphic design and layout
- Social media support
