Frequently Asked Questions

How do I join the network?

Join our mailing list and stay up to date on communications and events.

Do I have to be a designer to join?

If you mean a print or web designer, no, you don't have to be one to join the network. Videographers, photographers, illustrators, visual artists and anyone in a related marketing field can benefit from VCN membership and networking opportunities.

Do I really need to join another group on campus?

You don't have to, but we'd love to have you join us. At the University of Nebraska–Lincoln, we encourage colleagues to become stakeholders in branding efforts and your help and input is highly valuable. It also provides you the opportunity to network with fellow creative colleagues who face similar challenges as you do within your own office.
