GENERAL POLICY All advertising copy is subject to approval by the Fanshawe Student Union. In
consideration of the Advertising and Design Services’ (ADS’) acceptance of copy for publication, the
agency and the advertiser will indemnify and save harmless, FSU, its officers, employees, and agents, against
all loss, damage and expense of whatsoever nature arising out of the copying, printing or publishing of
advertising copy including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees resulting from claims of suits
for libel, violation of right to privacy, plagiarism and trademark and copyright infringement.
COPY POLICIES Advertising deadlines, as published herein are strictly observed. Although
advertising may, rarely, be accepted later than deadline, late copy is accepted with the understanding that
Advertising and Design Services or FSU, will assume no responsibility for errors in published advertising. Advertising
and Design Services will not be responsible for errors in published copy if a proof has been furnished to the
advertiser or advertiser’s agent, or if completed digital file containing errors has been supplied by the
advertiser. In no case will ADS’ or FSU’s liability exceed the cost of the advertising space occupied
by the erroneous ads and FSU assume no liability for failure to publish advertising on the date or edition
ordered. There is an additional charge for placement for guaranteed positions in the Interrobang as outlined in the
rates. Contest advertising must be submitted in advance and include rules. Advertisements must state that prize
winners’ names will be published or that winners will be notified by mail, and a list of winners must be
filed with the publisher. Orders not corresponding to the current rate card will be regarded as a clerical error
and the advertising will be inserted at face rate. FSU can assume no responsibility for production materials not
called for within 30 days after publication. Advertising which simulates the appearance of editorial or news
must be bordered, and the word “ADVERTISEMENT” must appear in the ad space. Advertising copy may not
be run upside down.
