What Should You Do? A Quick Guide to Media Inquiries at Montgomery College<p>A reporter calls about your program. A news crew arrives on campus. Or maybe you have a great Montgomery College story you think deserves broader attention.</p> <p><b>Marketing and Communications is here to help.</b></p> <p>Coordinating our work with the media helps Montgomery College respond quickly, provide accurate information, protect the privacy of our students and employees, and ensure the right College experts are involved. It also helps us identify opportunities to share the extraordinary work happening across the College.</p> <p>Here's what to do when the media comes calling--or when you have a story worth sharing.</p> <p><b>Want the full guidance?</b> Review Montgomery College's <a href="https://www.montgomerycollege.edu/_documents/policies-and-procedures/new/chapter-two/22003-public-information-communications-and-marketing.pdf">Policies and Procedures for Public Information, Communications, and Marketing</a> for the College's official standards for media relations and public information.</p> <p>This guidance applies to media inquiries seeking official Montgomery College information, comment, or representation. It does not restrict employees from speaking to reporters as private citizens or expressing their personal views. Employees speaking in their personal capacity should make clear that they are expressing their own viewpoints, not speaking on behalf of the College, and must continue to comply with applicable laws and College policies, including those governing confidential or protected information.</p> <p><b>If a Reporter Contacts You, Connect Them with MarComm</b></p> <p>All media inquiries should be referred directly to <a href="https://www.montgomerycollege.edu/news/index.html">Marketing and Communications</a>. This applies to journalists, bloggers, authors, news outlets, and other media seeking official College information or comment.</p> <p>If you are contacted about College policies, procedures, academic programs, student affairs, operations, employees, students, or an official College position:</p> <ul> <li>Refer the inquiry to <a href="https://www.montgomerycollege.edu/news/index.html">Marketing and Communications</a>.</li> <li>Notify MarComm of the inquiry immediately.</li> <li>Do not provide any statement or comment on behalf of the College before consulting with MarComm.</li> </ul> <p>This coordinated approach helps us understand what the reporter is seeking, gather accurate information, determine the appropriate College spokesperson or subject-matter expert, and respond in a timely manner.</p> <p><b>Athletics exception:</b> Information and statistics about Montgomery College athletic teams and sporting events are managed by Tarlouh Gasque, Tarlouh.Gasque@montgomerycollege.edu, executive director of intercollegiate athletics.</p> <p><b>Have a Great Story? Tell Us.</b></p> <p>Media relations isn't only about responding to reporters. It's also about finding opportunities to tell the Montgomery College story.</p> <p>Our students, faculty, staff, alumni, and programs accomplish remarkable things every day. If you know about an achievement, initiative, expert, event, partnership, or other story that could be newsworthy, <a href="https://form.asana.com/?k=guF7DLKYYaoerP9pkach4Q&amp;d=1100707368451604">send your idea</a><b> to Marketing and Communications</b>. We can help assess the opportunity, develop the story, identify the right media outlets, and coordinate outreach.</p> <p>The same principle applies when something may attract media attention for other reasons. If you become aware of an incident or issue that could develop into a broader news story, immediately notify Nick Munson, Nick.Munson@montgomerycollege.edu, director of strategic communications, and Marcus Rosano, Marcus.Rosano@montgomerycollege.edu, media and public relations director. Early awareness helps the College prepare accurate information and respond effectively.</p> <p><b>During a Crisis or Emergency</b></p> <p>Coordinated communication becomes especially important during a crisis or emergency.</p> <p>The College's Strategic Communications team within Marketing and Communications manages news media contacts and coordinates the release of official information to the public. All College departments should immediately refer media inquiries to Marketing and Communications.</p> <p>MarComm also works closely with the Office of Public Safety, Health, and Emergency Management to coordinate official updates and help provide timely, accurate information.</p>120250606_SummerCampusGT37-medium.jpgattach/bf320aee-2db6-6334-7925-ccdeb94c9344/20250606_SummerCampusGT37-medium.jpgtn_0.jpgattach/bf320aee-2db6-6334-7925-ccdeb94c9344/tn_0.jpgdi_0.jpgattach/bf320aee-2db6-6334-7925-ccdeb94c9344/di_0.jpgNeed to Know01 15050 Monday, October 12, 2026 emailArticle.php?articleToEmail=128925 details.php?id=128925&title=A_Reporter_Is_Calling._What_Should_You_Do?_A_Quick_Guide_to_Media_Inquiries_at_Montgomery_College 7edd32ee-e0f1-8b34-edd5-ef8a882548c51289042026-10-12 00:00:01.000Marcus RosanoTP/SS Campus East Garage - Construction Project Notice<p><b>TP/SS Campus East Garage - Construction Project Notice</b></p> <p>To continually improve safety and reliability in our facilities, the College has begun an East Garage (EG) Fire Alarm Replacement and Electrical Service Upgrade project.

This campaign allows the public to prevent pill abuse and theft by ridding their homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused, and unwanted prescription drugs. We accept prescription, over-the-counter, and pet medications. </p> <p>Unused or expired prescription medications are a public safety issue, leading to accidental poisoning, overdose, and abuse. Pharmaceutical drugs can be just as dangerous as street drugs when taken without a prescription or a doctor's supervision. Unused drugs that are flushed down the toilet contaminate the water supply. Proper disposal of unused drugs saves lives and protects the environment. Take-back programs are the best way to dispose of old prescription drugs. National Prescription Drug Takeback Day is held on Saturday, October 24; however, Montgomery College will hold our takeback events on Wednesday and Thursday of that week to maximize participation.</p> <p>On <b>Wednesday, October 21, between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.,</b> you can drop off your items at the following locations:</p> <ul> <li><b>Central Services</b> - Lobby area by the Public Safety desk.</li> <li><b>East County Education Center</b> - Lobby area by the Public Safety desk.</li> </ul> <p>On <b>Thursday, October 22, between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.,</b> you can drop off your items at the following locations:</p> <ul> <li><b>Germantown Campus</b> - In front of the <b>Bioscience Education Center (BE)</b> near the main entrance. In case of inclement weather, go to the SA building, room 269, Public Safety.</li> <li><b>Rockville Campus</b> - In front of the <b>Student Services Building (SV) </b>next to lot #4.

She joined the College two years ago. Robinson teaches Sociology courses in the Education and Social Sciences Department on the Takoma Park-Silver Spring campus.</p> <p>Robinson always has had a love for museums and libraries. "As a child, I would ask to go to a museum for my birthday," Robinson said. "There is something about seeing history and art on display that really scratches the part of my brain that craves a hands-on educational experience," she added.</p> <p>Robinson was born and raised in Chicago. She earned her Bachelor's of Science degree in Urban Studies and Public Policy at Dillard University, a liberal HBCU (Historically Black Colleges and Universities) in New Orleans, Louisiana.</p> <p>She earned her Master's in Sociology at the University of Notre Dame in Indiana. She also is pursuing her PhD in Sociology from the same school.</p> <p>Robinson moved to the D.C. region to conduct fieldwork for her dissertation.</p> <p>"My research focuses on identity, memory, and racial meaning at the National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC)."</p> <p>She became interested in this topic years earlier after she had visited the Apartheid Museum in Johannesburg, South Africa.</p> <p>"I saw so many parallels between the experience of Black Americans and that of Black South Africans as they battled against anti-black racism in their respective countries," Robinson said.</p> <p>There are parts of the Apartheid Museum that she still vividly remembers almost 7 years later. One of those exhibits is called political execution.</p> <p>"There were nooses hanging from the ceiling to represent each prisoner whose death was labeled a suicide during the apartheid regime. However, later it was revealed they were killed by law enforcement and the information was hidden," Robinson explained.</p> <p>Her trip to the Apartheid Museum made her reflect on her childhood experiences when she visited the The DuSable Black History Museum and Education Center in Chicago. One exhibit focused on Fred Hampton who was a member of the Black Panther Party.</p> <p>"In 1969, Hampton was murdered in his sleep by members of the FBI because of his involvement in the Black Panther Party and his support of socialism. Similar to the Apartheid Museum, the DuSable Museum acknowledged the death of a prominent social activist. However, it did not recognize it as the brutal assassination of a Black Power activist at the hands of the United States government," Robinson said.</p> <p>She explained these examples are illustrative of how democratic countries acknowledge race and racism within political and social institutions. This led her to examine the National Museum of African American History and Culture.</p> <p>Earlier this year, Montgomery College awarded Robinson a Shoenberg Fellowship. She is one of three winners in 2026. Robinson said she plans on using the fellowship to continue her exploration of NMAAHC. She specifically wants to document how the museum with its racial equality mission is perceived and presents itself as it "navigates the increasing tension between the expectation of nonpartisanship and the call to remain true to its social justice commitment."</p> <p>Robinson said she hopes to complete her dissertation by next year. When her research is done, she plans to share her findings with her colleagues in her department. She also may present some of her findings to the Office of Visitors Service at the NMAAHC.</p> <p>Robinson said she loves teaching at MC and she feels honored to be a part-time professor here. She always had an interest in teaching.</p> <p>"Growing up, I wanted to be a teacher, and I frequently tutored high school students," Robinson said.</p> <p>While she initially pursued other opportunities after she graduated from Dillard, she circled back to teaching.</p> <p>"I remained fascinated and inspired by educators, and through the mentorship of a professor at Dillard, I enrolled in a PhD program where I could explore the topics that interest me and teach others. So when I moved to the DMV to do my fieldwork, I thought this would be a great opportunity to apply the knowledge and skills I learned in my program to my own class. It has been an amazing experience teaching at MC," Robinson said.</p> <p>She wants her students to walk away from her class knowing they are capable of great things. She also wants them to be critical thinkers.</p> <p>When Robinson is not teaching or researching, she enjoys reading and singing karaoke.</p>1jamya_robinson_headshot.jpgattach/2dba8d76-aa8c-8064-f12f-a3f42afa6158/jamya_robinson_headshot.jpgtn_0.jpgattach/2dba8d76-aa8c-8064-f12f-a3f42afa6158/tn_0.jpgdi_0.jpgattach/2dba8d76-aa8c-8064-f12f-a3f42afa6158/di_0.jpgEmployee News0110 790210 Monday, October 12, 2026 emailArticle.php?articleToEmail=127452 details.php?id=127452&title=Part-Time_Faculty_October_Spotlight 95eef85e-e12c-1554-dd0c-7156205eddab1284532026-10-12 00:00:01.000Megan CalvertNew Faculty Learning Pathways: Attend Five Workshops, Earn a Microcredential<p>The Center for Teaching and Learning has launched five new Faculty Learning Pathways!
