As a public entity, the Oregon University System works to ensure that key stakeholders - including legislators, campuses, K-12 educators, business and industry, and the public - are informed about current issues and events affecting the higher education system, and thus the citizens of Oregon.

The Communications department of OUS works closely with the Chancellor, the State Board of Higher Education, the seven universities, and with internal OUS departments such as Academic Strategies, Industry Affairs, and Government Relations to communicate the plans, activities, and the current state of the public university system. This section includes pages listing latest OUS press releases, publications and reports, and other information.

Fore more information on legislative communications and materials, see Issue Briefs and Legislative Testimony or go to the Government Relations department page.
