If you have research that has been accepted for publication, reach out to Joey Pitchford (<a href=\"mailto:ljolenia@ncsu.edu\">jmpitchf@ncsu.edu<\/a>) at that time so she can time her article to release at the same time as the publication&#8217;s release.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Different groups on campus may also cover stories including Centennial Campus, Sustainability, Advancement and others. All NC State stories can be shared through Newswire and we are able to pull these stories directly into our website.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Any external media coverage can be easily captured in our <a href=\"https:\/\/textiles.ncsu.edu\/news\/category\/in-the-news\/\">In the News<\/a> section.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Unfortunately, even with several avenues to tell stories, we are not able to every story. Here are some of the factors we use to determine if we write a web story.\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Content strategy and priorities as set by the dean.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bandwidth, especially during certain times of year.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How recently we\u2019ve written about this, a similar topic or a different topic that meets the same priority or communicates a similar strategic message.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>What visuals exist for the story\/how easily it can be shared on social media.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How well this story can be told in an engaging fashion.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How unique the story is. For example, did a student win a competition held by the college, the university, or a wider organization? How many students won? Is this an experience offered only by our college?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-ncst-accordion-item ncst-accordion-item panel\"><a class=\"accordion-item__header collapsed\" href=\"#ncst-accordion-item-0-5\" id=\"ncst-accordion-item-heading-5\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#ncst-accordion-item-0-5\" aria-controls=\"ncst-accordion-item-0-5\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span class=\"accordion-item__expansion-indicator\"><span class=\"ncst-plus-minus-toggle\"><\/span><\/span><h2 class=\"accordion-item__label h5\"><strong>Could you add Dr. into my title within a web story\/piece of social media?<\/strong><\/h2><\/a><div class=\"collapse panel-collapse accordion-item__content-container \" id=\"ncst-accordion-item-0-5\" aria-labelledby=\"ncst-accordion-item-heading-5\" data-parent=\"#ncst-accordion-0\"><div class=\"accordion-item__content\">\n<p>NC State and all of its colleges follow the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/search?q=ap+stylebook&amp;oq=ap+stylebook&amp;aqs=chrome..69i57j0i512l4j69i60l3.1776j1j7&amp;sourceid=chrome&amp;ie=UTF-8\">AP Stylebook<\/a>. It&#8217;s essentially the journalist&#8217;s equivalent of Chicago or MLA style manuals, so it dictates rules for a wide range of things like punctuation, capitalization and titles. Not all colleges at NC State do a great job of enforcing this, so you may occasionally see exceptions. We don&#8217;t use Dr. in our stories because of AP Stylebook rules. The entry for &#8220;doctor&#8221; in the latest edition of the AP Stylebook:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Use <em>Dr.<\/em> in first reference as a formal title before the name of an individual who holds a doctor of dental surgery, doctor of medicine, doctor of optometry, doctor of osteopathic medicine, doctor of podiatric medicine, or doctor of veterinary medicine: <em>Dr. Jonas Salk<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The form <em>Dr.<\/em>, or <em>Drs.<\/em> in a plural construction, applies to all first-reference uses before a name, including direct quotations. Do not continue the use of <em>Dr.<\/em> in subsequent references.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Do not use <\/strong><strong><em>Dr.<\/em><\/strong><strong> before the names of individuals who hold other types of doctoral degrees. Instead, when necessary or appropriate: <\/strong><strong><em>Cassandra Karoub, who has a doctorate in mathematics, was lead researcher. U.S. first lady Jill Biden, who has a doctorate in education, plans to continue teaching. U.S. second gentleman Doug Emhoff, a lawyer, is joining the faculty of Georgetown Law.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if you specify to us that it\u2019s important to you, we can clarify in the story that you are a doctor and have a Ph.D. by including it in a sentence somewhere in the story. For example:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Smith, who has a doctorate in biology, says &#8230; <\/strong><strong><em>or&nbsp;<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Smith, who earned her Ph.D. from the College of Sciences, says&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are a number of older stories where Dr. may be used.
