Style: CASFAA News articles inform readers by analyzing one or more issues, presenting instruction or guidance, or expressing an opinion. The topic should be of interest to a broad base of our membership; however, it need not be an issue common to all schools. Examples often enhance an article and should be included when they help to illustrate a point. Readers often appreciate lists of recommended resources; charts; checklists; case studies; tables or diagrams; quotations; or points highlighted for emphasis. If statistics or quotes are used to illustrate a point, the source should be mentioned within the text.
