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.

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.
