The Cavalier Daily recently received a letter to the editor questioning our organization's decision to print a particular paid advertisement advertising a controversial speaker visiting Grounds. As you may know, The Cavalier Daily receives all of its operating funds through advertising revenue; however, we still apply standards to the types of advertisements we allow to appear in print.
Advertising policies are set each year by the Managing Board of The Cavalier Daily to ensure that the advertisements we print are consistent with The Cavalier Daily's mission. While we are willing to consider any advertisement submission, potential advertisers should be aware that under our current policies, advertisements related to certain topics including modeling and egg donation will not be permitted. Similarly, advertisements that contain untrue, libelous information do not serve our readers; thus we will not print them. Even if an advertisement does not fall into such a concretely specified category, all advertisements run at the discretion of The Cavalier Daily's Managing Board; so if an ads staffer identifies a potentially controversial ad, readers can be assured that the advertisement is considered carefully before it appears in print.
If you are considering running an advertisement in The Cavalier Daily — either in our Classified section or as a display ad — please be sure to contact a member of our advertising staff, who will be happy to work with you.
