The MIT spotlight answers the question, "What interesting and wonderful things are happening at MIT?"

Anyone can request a spotlight on the MIT homepage or second level pages. We also welcome graphic proposals. The choice of spotlights is an editorial decision based on factors that include timeliness, promotion of MIT's mission, the balance of interest to both internal and external audiences, and the appropriateness of presenting a certain face or image. More generally, we look at the balance of representation, the frequency of topics or similar topics that have been spotlighted before, and the feedback we receive via e-mail.

We ask that sites comply with MIT's Web guidelines and include a link to the MIT homepage, using the MIT logo.

We are looking forward to your spotlight request! Do keep in mind that we receive many requests for spotlights and it is not always possible to spotlight them all. We will confirm receipt of this request within a few days.
