Advertising Options for Student and University Groups
Due to recent on-campus restrictions from the University in response to COVID-19, campus advertising options for student and university groups are on hold until May 15, 2020. This does not include Underwriting Spots for Purchase or Free Public Service Announcements with KJHK. KJHK will continue to provide PSAs to registered student organizations free of charge. A production turnaround time of at least one week should be expected.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
The KU Memorial Union offers several advertising opportunities and formats to help student organizations, campus offices, and university affiliates promote their events and initiatives to the greater university community. Depending on the group and the nature of its request(s), advertising through the KU Memorial Union is typically inexpensive or even free in cases. Options for advertising and promotion include:
The cost to display banners on Jayhawk Walk is $10/day per banner, with a minimum expenditure of $20.
Banner specifications are as follows: banners should ideally be standard indoor vinyl banners, maximum size 2’ high x 15’ wide, grommets (with ½” holes) should be placed (at minimum) in the upper left and right corners of the banner, printing on both sides of the banner is acceptable, however no paper banners will be allowed unless laminated. Once approved, banner(s) may remain on display in the Kansas Union for up to one week.
To learn more or to reserve banner space, please contact the KU Memorial Union Administrative Office, located in the Kansas Union, room #476, by phone at 785-864-1170, or by email at eventservices@ku.edu.
Advertising is limited to registered student organizations, campus departments and university affiliates.
