'Arkansas News' Email on Reduced Summer Schedule
During the summer, Arkansas News, the daily summary of U of A news is sent via email on a reduced Monday-Wednesday-Friday schedule to students, faculty, staff and other subscribers.
Over the course of summer, the Arkansas News email will only be sent out on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. This change will allow more news to be seen with each email and avoid the potential of having to cancel a news email completely without notice due to a lack of or a low number of submissions. All recently published university news and features will always be available at news.uark.edu. Arkansas News will return to its daily schedule on Aug. 12.
