FAQs
My piece has already been published (newspaper, social media, etc.). Would 3T be willing to consider this?
- Since this has been published, we do not want to divert attention from an existing host. Further, our section-based world limits are quite specific, and we are far smaller than online blogs and so it is also not likely to fit our requirements
- We welcome you to add fresh content that may link to existing pieces to generate fresh content and yet retain a link to what you
Can I submit my own pictures/videos for my blog?
Yes, provided you the copyright on it. Communications unit will weigh in on this.
What process is followed?
- Suggestions for articles are received on 3t@iimb.ac.in
- The Editors reviews the submission and rejects, requests changes, or accepts it.
- On acceptance, the article is shared with the Communications Team and this is subsequently uploaded online.
How frequently can articles come online?
We are currently shooting for a weekly update
Can I share this on my social media handles?
Please do. However, please be advised that we cannot monitor each of your social media handles for comments and the responsibility lies with whoever posts to monitor their social media feedback.
Can a non-IIM community member contribute to the blog?
3T is meant to be a place for views by the IIMB community (current and retired staff and faculty as well as current students and alumni). All others are welcome to co-author with IIMB community members. Also, at the invitation of the editorial team, a guest or an expert may be invited to contribute to the blog; however, we expect the bulk of the content to come from the diverse background of different members of the IIMB community.
