Advertising Your News and Events
Can I email groups of students to advertise my
event?
The
iMpact database
contains contact information for faculty, staff and students at the
Ross School of Business. You can access individual profiles,
or use the
Student Directory to send messages
to groups of students. Please note that you cannot send
attachments through the Student Directory.
If you need to use html formatting or
send attachments, download a vCard by clicking the Download button
at the top of the profile page for each group member.
Are there Classifieds that reach Ross
students?
Is there a news source specifically for Ross students?
TheMSJ.com is the online edition of The Monroe Street Journal,
the official newspaper of the Stephen M. Ross School of Business at
the University of Michigan. The Monroe Street Journal is
published weekly by students at Michigan Business School.
TheMSJ.com features
Classified Ads as well as an
Events Calendar.
How can I order a poster to advertise my event?
Posters are a critical media for advertising news and events. Ross has introduced
new plasma monitors to display posters digitally. These same posters will be viewable on iMpact. Due to the new media,
there are very
specific instructions one how poster files are to be submitted:
-
Ensure that your
design page setup is the proper 8.5 W x 14 H.
-
Do not use a
landscape orientation.
-
Convert your native
file to either a .pdf or .jpg – only these file formats will be
accepted for input to the displays. Do not submit files in any
other format.

-
Choose images that
are appropriate in resolution and won’t pixilate. You can size a
large image down but you can’t enlarge a small image.
-
Use large type for
readability – small type is nearly impossible to read. If you
have information that you feel is critical, use a URL on the
display and put the information on a webpage.
-
Do not use an all
white background or even a “mostly” white background....at a
minimum use a light color or a tint of a color.
White is reserved for Emergency
Communication!
Can I create a webpage to advertise my event?
You can create your own personal
website using the University server. Be certain to review the
policies on
Responsible Use of University
resources. Visit
ITCS to learn how to set up your
website space.
Many Student Clubs already have
webpages and webboards set up. To request a webpage or
webboard for your Student Club, apply through the
Office of Student Life.
Can I create a UM email address for my club or team?
You can create a UM email address that will forward email to a group
of email accounts through the
UM Online Directory. Click
the Help button for detailed instructions.
