HOLMES COMMUNITY COLLEGE COMMUNICATIONS DEPARTMENT MISSION

The Communications Department’s mission is to place Holmes Community College students, staff, programs and facilities before the public. The intent is to accomplish this in a manner that will ensure the institution gains recognition that leads to stronger alliances with key constituencies, alumni, donors, friends and legislators. This will be accomplished in a manner that will ensure a continuing image of the college’s stability, quality and worth to the greater community.

The Holmes Community College Communications Department is the college’s public relations agency. The department’s main goal is to communicate the message to the intended audience in the most professional, prompt and cost-effective way. In order to enhance the college’s reputation and image in the community, the Communications Department is responsible for assuring consistency of image and quality in all college communications. Hence, the Communications Department will assist the college community with the process of providing information, influencing opinion, and promoting understanding of the mission and programs of the college among its many publics, both internal and external.

The Communication Guide is a fluid, living document that will periodically be updated and revised to reflect our evolving programs and procedures so that all Holmes personnel may adequately have a working knowledge of the communications process and appropriately assist in publicizing the great work being accomplished at Holmes Community College.
