Join our 'We Are UC ANR' awareness campaign in June
Colleagues,
If you've ever struggled to wrap your arms around all that we do or have a difficult time conveying it to stakeholders, an upcoming public awareness campaign (featuring a new We Are UC ANR video and interactive map) will help. The campaign, featuring those two website products and various social media tools, will help tell the UC ANR story in a compelling and visually beautiful way.
Starting on Thursday, June 1, we're asking for your help to spread the word about our new video and map and to encourage your stakeholders to share their stories through their social networks. To make this easy, we've developed a toolkit that includes sample posts and tweets, images, short video trailers, messaging, and the hashtag #WeAreUCANR.
Please encourage your staffs, networks, and colleagues to post their own inspirational stories about our impact on a client, the work of a dedicated colleague, or just what makes them happy to be part of the UC ANR family.
We're problem-solvers. Catalysts. Collaborators. Educators. Stewards of the land. The people of UC ANR are all this and more—providing the bridge between the people of California and trusted, science-based answers to everyday questions. Please join this month-long awareness effort and help us to bring UC ANR alive to current and future stakeholders!
Thank you.
Mike Janes

Mike Janes to head UC Agriculture and Natural Resources strategic communications
The article said Janes represented Sandia to the media for nearly 13 years. According to the Sandia website, the company, a wholly owned subsidiary of Lockheed Martin Corporation, is a science and engineering laboratory for national security and technology innovation.
In his new position, Janes will report directly to UC ANR vice president Barbara Allen-Diaz and will be responsible for overseeing a variety of functional communications areas. The article notes that the ANR division is located in Davis, but is not a part of UC Davis.
"It's been an honor and a pleasure working here at Sandia," Janes is quoted. "Though it's a cliché to say it's 'all about the people', it's really true in this case. I'll miss the people and the mission of Sandia but know the lab will continue to do important work in the national interest."
