Dear Advertisers, The #1 place to go for a student’s perspective of news, sports and campus events; the award-winning TCU Daily Skiff is the only newspaper designed specifically for the students, faculty and staff of Texas Christian University. As an advertiser, this is the premier place to reach this lucrative audience as more than 73% of college students look at advertisements placed within their college newspaper.* First published in 1902 by Ed S. McKinney as a means of paying for his education, the Daily Skiff has evolved into the present-day student run and operated newspaper. The Daily Skiff has maintained the same name for over a hundred years, which was given to the publication by McKinney himself. He planned to use the Skiff to sail through the financial waters of college. The Daily Skiff distributes 3,500 issues throughout the TCU area every Tuesday through Friday during the Fall and Spring semesters. The newspapers are free and located at over 50 locations on and around campus. In addition to the Daily Skiff, we also offer a full range of student media outlets to be utilized in reaching your audience. Student based media provides the most effective advertising method to deliver your message to the young and fast-paced college market. *AM+M 2008 College Newspaper Audience Study Conducted by MORI Research

Columbia College Chicago Founded in 1890 as a college of elocution, the mission of Columbia College has been to educate students who will communicate creatively and shape the public’s perceptions of issues and events. Columbia College Chicago has since grown into the largest arts and media college in the nation, with approximately 11,000 current undergraduate and graduate students, as well as more than 100,000 alumni, making our “network” among the largest of any arts and media college in the world.
The Loop Located in the Columbia Arts District in the heart of Chicago’s South Loop, Columbia College is just steps away from Chicago’s museum campus and a short bus or train ride from hundreds of theatre and music venues, independent film festivals, and galleries. Home to more than 16,000 residents and over 3,000 businesses, the South Loop is one of the fastest growing areas in downtown Chicago.

WVU grad set to reveal, redefine W.Va. BY CARLEE LAMMERS CITY EDITOR
When Elaine McMillion sees McDowell County she sees beyond a hollow and broken community – she sees potential to empower and redefine rural America. McMillion, a southern West Virginia native and West Virginia University alumna, along with five other W.Va. natives will live and work in McDowell County this summer and produce the interactive documentary “Hollow.” “‘Hollow’ will be an interac-

The main issues they are currently experiencing are population loss and unemployment,” McMillion said. “These issues will be faced, and these stories will be told
through the eyes of the people that live there.” Community members will take part in the filmmaking process by learning how to create their own documentaries and balloon maps to tell their personal stories. In 1950, when the coal market was booming, McDowell County was named “the nation’s coal bin” and home to nearly 100,000 people. Today, only 22,000 remain. According to demographers, the 10 communities that make up McDowell County are just years away
from extinction, McMillion said. “When industry abandons the people who made it great, it leaves behind a lot more questions than answers,” McMillion said. “The population loss is just too severe in my opinion. It’s a personal issue for all of us, and we want to do what we can to help the future generations.” “Hollow” will also aim to empower and give voice to those who in the past have had none, she said. “A lot of people are curious as to why we chose McDowell

This is a place to defy stereotypes and engage in joining together on these serious issues,” she said. “This is a chance to empower citizens and let them know that they can tell their own stories.” With all of the hardship this area has endured, McMillion said she hopes “Hollow” will spark communication and trust within the local community – and ultimately the nation.

WVU Gender Equality Movement Takes Back the Night, demands a safer campus BY CARLEE LAMMERS CITY EDITOR
Shatter the silence and stop the violence. Members of the West Virginia University Gender Equality Movement hosted a “Take Back the Night” event Thursday to raise awareness of sexual assault, domestic abuse and rape, as well as demand a safer campus. “ Violence on college campuses is so prevalent,”
said GEM coordinator Melissa Chesanko. “One in four women will survive a sexual assault on a college campus, and it doesn’t help them to have that feeling of ‘I feel alone’, so we try to build a community.” The event included a performance by spoken word artist Crystal Leigh Endsley, a march to end violence, a candlelight vigil to honor survivors and victims and a speak out in which participants had
the opportunity to share their personal stories. Senior criminology student Brittany Andrews said she believes the issues of rape and sexual assault are not stressed heavily enough. “This is an issue that is so serious, but not a lot of people bring attention to it, so I think it’s good to raise awareness,” she said. “I feel like there just isn’t a lot of information about it on this campus.” Chesanko said she believes
in order to eliminate violence on campus, students must undergo a shift in perspective on sexuality. “I think a shift in perspective is necessary. We need to change our attitude on gender culture that is prevalent on so many college campuses. We need to eliminate sexism,” she said. “It’s a much bigger picture than just teaching people something – that’s

You never know where you could meet someone who can land you a job,” she said. Admission was free for the event, and dinner was provided. Students also received vouchers for two free drinks at the bar, and beer on tap was available. Participants’ names were put into a raffle for prizes including season basketball and football tickets, WVU apparel and an iPad.

Bahr has been named one of the top ten financial advisors by Registered Rep., a leading financial industry magazine. She is the managing partner of Bahr Investment Group, and she is a successful entrepreneur and wealth manager with more than twenty years of experience. Wall was named one of the top 250 financial advisors in the country by “Worth” magazine eight years in a row and specializes in guiding people through difficult life transitions including divorce and widowhood. The two women created the Women’s Institute for Financial Education and cowrote a book titled “It’s More Than Money – It’s Your Life!” Free copies of the book were handed out at the event.

Remick said Huggins has undoubtedly played a big part in getting the community involved. “Coach Huggins has raised nearly one million dollars through the Norma Mae Huggins Endowment Fund to support cancer clinical trials at MBRCC,” Remick said. “A significant portion of these funds has been matched by the West Virginia Research Trust Fund.” Remick said the money raised by the Norma Mae Huggins Endowment Fund will be put to good use as the health care professionals at the center diligently search for an end to cancer. “Cancer research is vital if we are to improve our ability

appearance.
Tonight: Enjoy the one you are with.
BORN TODAY You have a very appealing manner that draws many people to you. However, because you are surrounded by so many admirers, often jealousy comes into play. Be careful as to what you promise, and make sure you are clear about your expectations and desires. If you are single, you might commit to someone, only to suddenly find the bond volatile. Try to avoid commitment this year. If you are attached, the two of you often find that you disagree. Learn to respect your sweetie’s perspective, and peace will be restored. PISCES spends money differently than you do.
CANCER (JUNE 21-JULY 22) ★★★★ You see a situation much differently than a partner. Through what might be animated conversation, you come to terms. If you detach, you see this person’s caring. Otherwise, anger could be the result. Know you are cared about. Tonight: Catch up on calls.
SAGITTARIUS (NOV. 22-DEC. 21) ★★★★ Take a serious look at a schedule change. You clearly cannot do as you desire with your present commitments. Though you may not see the path immediately, it is there. Brainstorm with a buddy. Tonight: Buy something for your home or roommate.
LEO (JULY 23-AUG. 22) ★★★★ Be sensitive to your needs financially. A close partner might have a different perspective and interests. This person has a very caring manner that often ropes you in. Know your limits, and be willing to say “no.” Tonight: Go with a suggestion.
CAPRICORN (DEC. 22-JAN. 19) ★★★★ Make calls, schedule meetings and do not forget to make or confirm weekend plans. You could be overwhelmed by all that you have to do. News coming in from a distance could trigger a strong reaction. Sort fact from fiction. Tonight: You don’t have to go far,
ARIES (MARCH 21-APRIL 19) ★★★★ You might want to pull back and get a better understanding of a friendship. This person sometimes goes overboard. Anger develops when you least expect it. Could someone expect more than you can give? Tonight: Get some R and R. TAURUS (APRIL 20-MAY 20) ★★★★★ Being driven points a venture toward success. Another person’s creative idea might backfire. No matter how nice you are when you nix this concept, the end results could be volatile. Do not spend too much energy on this issue. Tonight: Find your friends. GEMINI (MAY 21-JUNE 20) ★★★★ Be as upbeat as you can when dealing with a higher-up or boss. Listen to feedback. On a personal level, your home life could be disruptive. Do not take the events here into your professional life. Focus on your public image. Tonight: A must
VIRGO (AUG. 23-SEPT. 22) ★★★ Recognize how easily triggered you are. Pull back rather than lose your temper. Words spoken could cause a problem and cannot be taken back. A partner or another person you are financially tied to triggers strong reactions. Tonight: The only answer is yes. LIBRA (SEPT. 23-OCT. 22) ★★★★ Sitting on strong feelings could be difficult. Pick and choose the timing to release your aggravation. Go back to the original issue. Others keep requesting your help with various projects. Toss yourself into at least one. Tonight: Squeeze in some exercise. SCORPIO (OCT. 23-NOV. 21) ★★★★ You are all smiles, no matter how you look at a situation. A friend might be aggressive about you pursuing a certain path. You know how to say no, but in this case, it might not be heard. Trust your judgment.
AQUARIUS (JAN. 20-FEB. 18) ★★★ Only you can decide what to do with your funds. You do not always have to defer to a partner. You care a lot about this person, regardless of how volatile he or she might be, yet you do not have to say yes all the time. Tonight: Make sure your budget is in the plus column.

PISCES (FEB. 19-MARCH 20) ★★★★★ Beam in others. Make a decision about who would be best to go to an event or begin a project with. Honor what you feel, and it all works out. One person could become quite irritated. You cannot change his or her reaction, but you also do not need to react! Tonight: Do your own thing.

TERMS AND POLICIES Out-of-town and new advertising accounts must pre-pay for advertising until credit is established. All political, “closing”, and “going out of business” advertising must be prepaid. To establish a credit account, an advertiser is required to complete a credit application and pre-pay until credit has been verified. (Please allow 30 days for approval.) All accounts which have been granted billing privileges are allowed 30 days past the billing date to pay the balance in full. All balances not paid in 30 days are subject to a finance charge of 1.5% per month. Any errors on billing invoices must be brought to management’s attention within 30 days of receipt of invoice. In the case of a disputed charge, the remainder of the balance due should be paid along with written notification for the reason of the amount withheld. No adjustment will be made for errors that do not materially affect the value of the advertisement. Advertising which has minor discrepancies such as misspelling or small type transposition, but which do not affect the ability of the reader to respond to the ad will be considered substantially correct and full payment will be required. The Daily Athenaeum is not responsible for advertisements which do not appear. All negotiations regarding a complaint are dealt with on an individual basis and must be personally approved by the director. Accounts not paid in 120 days from billing date are considered delinquent and will be turned over for collection at the accountant’s discretion. No advertising will be accepted on delinquent accounts until the balance is paid. The Daily Athenaeum retains the right to refuse any ad for any reason. All advertising phraseology and/or subject matter is subject to editing, altering, approval, or rejection by the student business manager and the student ad/editorial board of The Daily Athenaeum. Ads created by The Daily Athenaeum will be available for proofing prior to publication. Proof service is to correct typographical errors and deviations from the original layout- not for alterations, size changes, or additions of new copy. When proofs are delivered, responsibility for correction is that of the advertiser. Upon approval, The Daily Athenaeum is no longer liable for errors. Additional charges may be assessed for more than two proof changes. Positioning of advertisements in the paper will be done on a request basis and handled as such. Requests for positions will be honored when possible but no page position can be guaranteed. Any standard advertising position may be purchased at 25% of the cost of said advertisement when possible (minimum advertising size will be 10 inches). Positions will be sold on a first come, first serve basis. Advertising simulating news can be set in body type, but must carry the word “advertisement”. Normally, no display advertising will be published upside down, sideways, or in any other manner that is not in the keeping with good, traditional newspaper make-up.

Minimum purchase of 10,000 impressions. All banner ads will run on The Daily Collegian’s web site as “Level Campaigns.” This requires a start date, an end date and a total number of impressions selected by the advertiser. Ads will then be impressed x number of times per day, determined by dividing the total number of impressions purchased by the total number of days scheduled. For higher visibility we recommend scheduling more than one ad during your time frame.
@DAILYCOLLEGIAN Example: How much? Client purchases 50,000 impressions to run over three weeks (21 days). Price: $550 $11 per thousand x 50 (50,000 impressions) = $550.
How often will my ad be seen? 50,000 impressions divided by 21 days = 2,381 times a day.
Ads running less than 3 months: $11 per thousand impressions
Ads running for 6 months: $9 per thousand impressions
Ads running for 3 months: $10 per thousand impressions
Ads running for 1 year: $8 per thousand impressions
1 - 2 MILLION page views per month during the Fall and Spring semesters.
The actual number of views for your banner will depend upon its duration. The minimum views for seven full days should not be fewer than 4,500.

WE’RE STUDENT MEDIA Student Media at the University of South Carolina houses the four student-run media outlets on campus: The Daily Gamecock, Garnet & Black, SGTV and WUSC. Each offers students real-word know-how in print, broadcast, advertising and graphic design as well as the opportunity to plug-in at the heart of campus and the student body. All students, regardless of year or major, are invited to join one, or all four, of the media groups. Each student’s time in the newsroom, behind the mic, or in design builds the experience and skill set for internships and jobs after graduation.

THESE ARE THE FACTS
22,556 of those were undergraduates,
Last year, we had an audience of
36,417
8,165 were graduates, and 5,696 were USC faculty and staff.
Consider this: 45% (or 13,740) of these were guys; another 55% (or 16,981) were girls.
35% of the audience consisted of out-of-state students, and 65% consisted of in-state students.
Oh, and one more thing: 64% of undergrads live off campus, and 20% of undergrads are part of Greek Life.

SUBMITTING YOUR AD Q: Hey, what’s a camera-ready ad? A: A camera-ready ad is one that is created to the size that will appear in the newspaper. It meets all of The Daily Gamecock’s technical requirements, and includes all support documents and fonts needed to print.
Q: How should I save pictures? A: To make sure your photos look as good as they can within ads, all photographs should be at least 180 DPI at the final size (dimension) they’ll appear as in the newspaper. Don’t save photos as RGB images; they should be created in either CMYK or grayscale.
Q: What’s the preferred file format for ad submittals? A: Glad you asked. We prefer PDFs. Be sure to embed all the fonts used within your ad and select the “leave color unchanged” setting under the “color” tab. Adobe Distiller settings for The Daily Gamecock newspaper are available for power users.
Q: How do I create a spot color advertisement? A: Spot color ads have to be created using one of The Daily Gamecock’s acceptable spot color formulas. Create a custom spot color swatch in your layout software and apply it as desired. Color formulas are available from your sales rep and at our website.
Q: Does that mean I can submit native files? A: Sure does! But first you need to know that native files have to be accompanied by all support documents (.tif, .eps, etc.) used within your artwork; screen, TrueType and printer fonts; and a hard copy of the ad. Only ads created in professional layout software are considered camera-ready. If you have questions about your artwork, get in touch with your sales representative. That being said, the following formats are the only kind accepted by The Daily Gamecock:
Q: Alright, I’ve gone through the checklist, and I think I’m good to go. How do I deliver my camera-ready ad? A: Email it to smcreativeservices@sc.edu. Please include the client name and run date in the subject line so your message doesn’t get lost in the ether. You can also save your ad on a CD-ROM or USB flash drive and give it to your sales representative.
Adobe Illustrator (.ai) Adobe InDesign (.indd)
There are also some file formats we don’t accept. We like you, you like us, and we’ve got a pretty good thing—so let’s keep it that way. Never send us these:
Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, Excel, JPEGs, GIFs, PNGs, and Quark Xpress
14
We’ve got standards, too We have a thorough list of policies regarding deadlines, general standards of ad acceptance, our alcohol policy, positioning, errors and placement available on The Daily Gamecock’s website under the “advertising” tab. (Look for “policies.”) So, worried you might scandalize us? Then check there first, and if you still have questions, talk to your account representative for a detailed rundown.

WPGU FORMAT:
WPGU is “Champaign’s Alternative.” Known for introducing Central Illinois to the best in new alternative and rock music, WPGU is the source for hits from such established bands as the Foo Fighters, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Green Day, Nirvana, Incubus, Kings of Leon, Pearl Jam, Muse, the Smashing Pumpkins, and Death Cab for Cutie, along with new music from the next wave of big name artists like The Black Keys, Cage the Elephant, and The Shins. WPGU is also the first to play the latest sensations from newer artists, such as Gotye’s “Somebody That I Used to Know” and fun.’s “We Are Young,” while also introducing great stuff from local bands.
AUDIENCE: WPGU targets 18 to 34-year-old adults, including the more than 40,000 students at the University of Illinois and nearly 11,000 faculty and staff members, as well as students and staff at Parkland College. Our listeners can be found on campus and in the communities throughout Central Illinois. Because WPGU’s format crosses generational lines, there is also a clearly defined 18 to 49-year-old audience captured. Local residents know WPGU as a radio innovator since 1953, and the station has been rocking the FM dial since 1967. WPGU’s audience of young adults is establishing brand name loyalties now as they move into their peak spending years. With significant levels of disposable income, these emerging professionals are making major purchases and financial decisions, often for the first time, and, of course, WPGU listeners are also prime entertainment spenders.

The Daily Pennsylvanian and The Summer Pennsylvanian are broadsheet newspapers. 34th Street Magazine is a tabloid section. Special issues vary; see page 15 for the format of each issue.
AD SIZES: Sizes are expressed as the number of columns wide by the number of inches tall (i.e. a “2 x 4” ad is 2 columns wide by 4 inches tall). Multiplying columns by inches gives the total number of column inches (i.e. 2 x 4 = 8 column inches). Multiplying column inches by the ad rate gives the ad cost.

Tabloid ads taller than 8.5” will be charged and run as a full 10.5” column.
About Classified Display Ad Sizes Classified display ads are display (boxed) ads which run in the classified section.

IMPRESSIONS: Banner ads are priced by number
Large, color, glossy posters provide a great opportunity to promote your image on campus. The rackbox units are located inside dorms, dining halls and classroom buildings, where students spend most of their time. Rackbox posters do not compete with other ads, since they are located in an environment that is not cluttered with flyers and other posters. Rackbox advertising is a perfect complement to a display advertising program.
Contact the Advertising Office for scheduling and shipping instructions. A sample copy must be sent to The Daily Pennsylvanianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office for review.

The Daily Pennsylvanian will make all reasonable effort to see that advertising is published, displayed or distributed as ordered and accepted. However, The Daily Pennsylvanian will not be responsible for any consequential damages resulting from failure to do so. Advertisers and agencies forwarding insertion orders which contain incorrect rates or conditions are advised that the advertising called for will be inserted and charged in accordance with the rates and regulations stated in this Rate Book and The Daily Pennsylvanian Basic Advertising Contract.

Advertising cancelled after the deadline for publication will be removed from the issue, but the advertiser remains liable for payment of the full cost of the ad.
Annual Contracts Annual Contract advertising agreements commit an advertiser to run a specified dollar amount of advertising during a 12-month period in return for discounted advertising rates. Advertisers who do not fulfill their Annual Contract agree to pay, at termination, a short rate (adjustment) for all advertising discounted under the contract. Advertisers may upgrade to a larger contract, at a lower rate, at any time during the contract. The new rate will be effective for all advertising run after the date of the upgrade, but the new rate is not retroactive to advertising previously run.
Annual Contracts and contract upgrades must be approved by The Daily Pennsylvanian’s Advertising Director or Business Manager before becoming effective.
Credit & Billing All ads must be paid at the time of placement unless a credit account has been previously established and maintained in good standing. You must submit a credit application to apply for a credit account. Credit will be extended at the discretion of The Daily Pennsylvanian, which reserves the right to request payment in advance or to cancel credit privileges at any time. Statements are mailed at the end of each month; invoices are not sent for individual ads. Terms: net 30 — that is, payment in full is due 30 days from the end-of-month statement date.

What better place to advertise than on the most popular page of the newspaper.

Too many pictures or text can make advertisements look too busy. Proper use of white space will make the text or other elements of an advertisdement stick out. Ample white space helps gain attention, create contrast, and unify the advertisement.
In a black and white newspaper, any spot of color is sure to stand out. In fact, color ads get noticed 60% more than black and white ads. Different colors not only create depth but spark emotion in your readers. Choose colors that convey the message or feeling you are trying to evoke in your audience.
Pictures are often great indicators of what the company has to offer. Attractive and vivid images are an effective and fast way to gain attention and encourage them to want to learn more. Readers should be able to tell at a first glance what product or service is being offered.
What sets your company apart from others? Give customers a reason to want to come to your business. Share the exceptional qualities of your business and highlight them in your advertisement.
It takes a campaign of advertising to effectivelt reach most shoppers. Two or three ads will be notices more than one. In fact, it is on the third exposure of an advertisement that a consumer starts to identify your company and what it has to offer.
