Advertising Specifications Including Size and Price: Ad_Specs.pdf

The Newsletter regularly carries both display ads and text ads. Display ads—quarter, half, and full page ads—appear throughout the issue in attractive enclosed boxes and may include university or institutional crests, monograms, and other such symbols. Text ads appear in the Opportunities and Resource section of the Newsletter and are limited to brief descriptions. Descriptions may be divided into no more then three paragraphs. The university’s or institution’s name and the shortest possible form of the position title will be highlighted. Print ads will not be displayed online unless the advertiser also purchases an online ad.

Employment Opportunities Online:

The ASA also accepts online advertising at the rate of $100.00 per position announcement. Prepayment by credit card for online advertisements is required. The position will be listed in the continually updated Employment Opportunities Online section of the ASA website. The employment section is freely accessible both to ASA members and to anyone with a web access. The ASA website receives an average of 5,000 unique visitors every week. A notice will be emailed to the advertiser listing the ad’s specific web address. The position will be removed two weeks after the deadline for applications or upon receipt of notification that the position has been filled.

The American Studies Association publishes “Employment Opportunities” as a service of ASA to both employers and job applicants. ASA recommends that all positions for American Studies practitioners should be advertised in “Employment Opportunities.” Association members should notify appropriate officials at their institutions of this service and advise them to take advantage of it.

Information in listings is assumed to reflect bona fide openings at the time the ads were placed. Applicants should contact employers for more complete information or changes in the job listing. All applications and inquiries for a position should be acknowledged promptly and courteously. The ASA expects institutions in the U.S. to adhere to Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employment practices.
