Editorial Calendar requests – As a daily website covering higher education we do not set a calendar of topics that we know we are going to cover in advance - we report on what's going on in the community today and this week. However we do attend all of the larger conferences around the country - and many, many of the mid-sized and smaller ones - and we have coverage from the conference, making those dates attractive times to advertise if you are looking to reach the meeting's target audience.
Standard Run-of-Site Advertising – Launch your campaign to a captive audience of 1.5 million unique monthly visitors on our home page and story-level pages, generating more than 4.2 million page views. Two banner ad sizes are required: 160x600 pixels and 300x250 pixels.
Cost: Starting at $55 CPM (cost per thousand impressions delivered); institutional branding rate $50 CPM; association rate: $45 CPM; university presses should contact Danielle Small for rates.
Story Level PagePremium Run-of-Site Advertising – Along with the two standard banner ad positions listed above (300x250 and 160x600) include the highly visible leaderboard message to your campaign mix.

Roadblock Run-of-Site Advertising – A premium run-of-site campaign that includes all three elements -- 300x250, 160x600 and 728x90 ad sizes -- appearing on the same page at the same time, taking over the site and allowing your campaign 100% share of voice whenever your ads appear.
