Manual last updated: 10/11/04
Our printed and online publications
represent Samford University. It's important that we present our
programs and services in a unified manner. Much of this manual is
drawn from The Chicago Manual of Style (CMS) and The
Associated Press Stylebook (AP). AP is a good
source for spellings of proper names and technical or media-related
terminology, as is Merriam Webster's Collegiate Dictionary.
We will update this manual often to reflect current usage and changes
on this campus.
A consistent written style is an important part of the University's
image. But please remember that your writing is your own, even when
edited according to the principles outlined in this manual.
For questions about this style manual, please contact Janica
York Carter , Publications Manager, at (205) 726-2921.
