From time to time, we share with our readers press release generated information from the Ohio Wesleyan University from its Office of University Communications.
At the same time, there are two sets of posts which are referred to by different names — one as “Make the Connection,” and the other as “Feature Story.” As these do not say release, we do not share these in their entirety but rather do include links to them in our 1808AM enewsletter.
These posts tend to be more in depth. We also do an occasional grouping of those stories in one of our regular posts, as we are doing now. The following six posts were published during November; click on any to be taken to the story.
