About
Advertisements
US
Post Office regulations require that all advertisers in Wellesley magazine
be affiliated with the College and/or the Alumnae Association,
or one of their subsidiary groups.
All advertisers must be organized groups that are recognized by the College or
the Alumnae Association.
All advertisements must market a product, service, or event that holds wide interest
for alumnae. Advertisements may not be used for soliciting funds or for listing
donors to a particular group. (An exception to this policy has been made for
the Wellesley College Resources Office, per a 1952 agreement with the Alumnae
Association.)
Wellesley does not accept ads for products that are not
sponsored by the Association, one of its subsidiaries, or a College-related
group. This policy extends to Wellesley-related products sold by
outside organizations and to items manufactured or marketed by
individual alumnae.
No outside organizations may be mentioned by name in advertisements, per postal
regulations.
Classified ads for vacation homes are not accepted, per postal regulations.
All advertisements are accepted at the discretion of Wellesley's editor.

Wellesley
does not accept oral requests or standing requests
to advertise. However, advertisers who know their
plans for the fiscal
year (July 1-June 30) may place a written request
to advertise that covers a full year. Please note
that advertising space is limited and will be sold on a
first-come, first-served basis.
Requests to advertise must include the full text of the advertisement. Advertisers
will be charged a design fee when ad layout involves more than simple typesetting
and placement of graphics.
Dimensions of pages are roughly: (subtract for margins, depending on design
of ad)
| 1/12 page |

must provide the product or a clear color photograph to the magazine office.

About
Inquiries
These
noncommercial notices are published as a service to our
readers.
Most are calls for information from alumnae, for example, a Nabokov scholar
seeking Nabokov's former students. Wellesley also accepts notices of Wellesley-related
items available from individuals with some connection to the College for one-time
sale.
Groups selling products for fund-raising purposes and individuals selling for
profit may not publish inquiries.
Classified ads for vacation homes are not accepted, per US Post Office regulations.
