Prepayment is required by deadline without exception.

We accept Visa, Mastercard, and Discover via telephone at (254) 710-3407.

We also accept American Express, but only for purchases of $100 or more.

We accept checks. All checks must arrive at our office by deadline, or the requested ad will not run as scheduled. To ensure that your check is received by deadline, allow 7-10 days for arrival.

Please mail checks to:

Baylor Lariat Advertising One Bear Place #97330 Waco, TX 76798-7330 1. All advertisements must be prepaid by deadline without exception.

2. The regulations, prices and deadlines set forth in this rate and information schedule apply to all advertisers.

3. Any checks that are returned with insufficient funds will be charged a $25 fee, and the customer will no longer be allowed to pay with a check.

4. All rates are net (non-comissionable) to the newspaper. It is the responsibility of all agencies to figure their own commissions and discounts in addition to this net rate.

B ayl or L a r ia t Po lic ie s 1. The Baylor Lariat reserves the right to reject or revise any advertising deemed to adversely affect the integrity and credibility of the newspaper as a source of truthful and accurate information, be repugnant to most of the readers served by the newspaper, be in conflict with the Christian educational mission of Baylor University or falsely imply endorsement by the university.

2. The Baylor Lariat does not accept advertisement for any type of alcoholic beverage, coupon books, weapons, credit cards without credit checks, research papers, personals (including adoptions), contraceptives, insurance policies, law firms seeking suit, sperm/ovum donations, tobacco or any advertisement related to abortions.

3. Place and page position requests will be honored if possible. Only Page 3 and the back page can be reserved and guaranteed with an additional charge of 20 percent. This applies only to half-page and full-page ads.

4. The sole responsibility for the content of an advertisement lies with the advertiser, who unconditionally agrees to hold the Baylor Lariat harmless should a claim arise and to pay for any and all expenses incurred as a result of publication of an ad. Should an ad not be published as ordered, The Baylor Lariat cannot be responsible for any losses or damages caused as a result. Should there be an error in an ad, The Baylor Lariat’s liability is limited to the amount paid for the portion of the ad containing the error.

5. Because of the costs associated with redesigning the newspaper after the advertising deadline, advertising canceled after the deadline will be charged in full. In addition, changes to ads after the deadline will be subject to additional charges and in some cases may not be possible.

6. Make-goods or credit adjustments will be made for the portion of the ad in error. It is the responsibility of the advertiser to notify the Baylor Lariat of significant errors. The Baylor Lariat will be responsible for first-run errors only.

7. Proofs are available upon request by 10 a.m. one business day before publication. All corrections or changes must be received no later than 2:30 p.m. one business day before publication.

8. A charge of $2 per column inch will be made for ads created at customer request and then canceled without the insertion.

9. The Baylor Lariat is not responsible for errors when copy is submitted after deadline, when a proof has been approved by the advertiser or when “camera ready” copy containing errors has been supplied by the advertiser.
