As the semester is underway, we thought we would share some helpful information and suggestions about campus-wide communication. Let us know if you have questions or if we can be helpful in any way!
Hope Daily
WHAT IS HOPE DAILY?

- If you have an event or information that is useful to the greater Hope community, you may submit an announcement to Hope Daily. The message must be Hope-related and originate from a faculty or staff Hope email address.

Good question. View our submission guidelines.
STUDENT MAIL
- Regular messages to students or specific targeted groups of students (e.g., all Philosophy majors) are handled through the Studentmail system (studentmail@hope.edu), coordinated by the Office of the Registrar.
inHope
- inHope is Hope College’s intranet and is only accessible to individuals who have a hope.edu email address.
- inHope includes campus announcements, news, events, employee and student directories, Marketplace and links to common campus resources and services.
- To submit an inHope announcement, complete the announcement form and determine how long you want your announcement to stay active.
Calendar
- The Hope College Calendar is a publicly accessible master list of events. Events on the calendar also appear on inHope, department websites, and digital signage.
- To post your event on the calendar:
- Make your campus room reservation through EMS.
- Select ‘Yes’ to display this event on the Hope College public calendar.
- Include descriptive text in the “Event Details” section of the room reservation.
- Approved events typically appear on the campus calendar in 1–2 business days.
- List all of your department events on the calendar, even if attendance is not open to the public. If your event is invite-only, do not post your event.
- Promote your event by emailing more information and/or a custom photo to calendar@hope.edu.
- For assistance with room reservations, contact the Events and Conferences Office (events@hope.edu, 616.395.7222).
Please send any questions about Campusmail, inHope and the Calendar to Public Affairs and Marketing (marketing@hope.edu, 616.395.7860).
