Osprey Connector Advertising

The seven Osprey Connector busses each have six 40” x 10” advertising panels available for semester purchase by University departments or official student organizations.

Semester ad rates:

$1,000 for fall term;

$1,000 for spring term; and

$250 for summer term.

A semester ad will include one panel on each of the seven busses (seven separate panels).

Approximately five weeks before the start of a semester, an announcement will go on Campus Update asking for advertising requests through a link to a web form. A Banner index number or a Foundation account number will be required to submit the form. All submissions will receive a confirmation email within two business days. Those with the first six submissions will be told they have obtained space, others will be told to try again next semester.

All panels must be designed and produced by the Marketing & Publications Department. The required web form information will include whether the desire is to display a previously designed ad or if a new design is necessary. For the previously designed ad, no further action is necessary by the department. If the ad needs new design work, the Marketing & Publications staff will contact the person listed on the submitted web form to work through the details.

Ads will be placed in the shuttle busses during intersession and will remain through the purchased term’s Commencement.

Please note – the Osprey Connector service does not operate when the University is closed or when the University is open but classes are not being offered (e.g. breaks between terms and March Break).

Please note – the Osprey Connector service does not operate all seven busses at the same time. Peak hours during fall and spring terms have six busses operating on campus with two busses operating during peak hours for the summer term.
