University Writing Style Guide
We should all be consistent in our writing. In the University Writing Style Guide, you’ll find a helpful university-specific master list of words and phrases that are most often misspelled or misused on campus – including the difference between alumna/alumnus/alumni, a list of proper Boise State building names and common capitalization mistakes like “University.”
Inclusive Excellence Communication Guide
Boise State is full of human diversity. Each student, staff, or faculty member has unique experiences with an individual contribution to our campus culture – and all deserve respect. We created this Inclusive Excellence Communication Guide to help campus communicators by providing some basic ways to start incorporating inclusion into their everyday writing, communicating, and professional lives at Boise State. This information has been incorporated into the University Writing Style Guide.
