The Associated Students & University Student Union, (ASI & USU) Marketing team is here to help you take your marketing and advertising to the next level. However, due to the creative nature and scope of our work please be advised of the following guidelines:

Clients: ASI & USU Graphic Design services are provided to on-campus clubs, organizations and departments; however, ASI & USU entities will always retain priority.

Notice: All projects must be given at least 2 weeks notice before design date, unless otherwise approved by the ASI/USU Executive Director. Ideally, units should plan projects 3 weeks to 1 month in advance to ensure a high quality of work from start to print. Projects vary by type, therefore, completion times may also vary. Please allow 1 week between the design date and the distribution date to ensure enough time for approvals and printing.

Timelines: ASI & USU will make every effort to complete work by the due dates agreed upon. However, completion of projects may be delayed if the patron does not communicate with the ASI Marketing Services Coordinator and or Graphic Designer at various times throughout the project’s timeline. Postponement in communication or late submissions at any point in the project may cause the completion date to be pushed back.

Errors and Omissions: Patrons are responsible for the accuracy of ALL PROJECTS. It is the patron’s responsibility to check all proofs (outputs) thoroughly for error and oversights of any kind. E-mail confirmation to the ASI Marketing Services Coordinator (kwall@csustan.edu) or signature of approval behind final copy is required prior to release for printing, uploading or replicating.

Cancellations: In the occurrence of cancellation of a project, ASI/USU keeps ownership of all copyrights and the original artwork

The Warrior Activities Center is now allowing clubs, organizations and departments to rent A-Frames at $1 per day/ per A-frame if they are not in use by the ASI & USU marketing team. The requestor must come to the Warrior Activities Center and fill out an A-Frame request at the WAC Front Office before taking them. A-Frames must be picked up by the requesting department/organization. The requestor must return the A-frame before 5:00pm to the Warrior Activities Center on the day of their check out date. A-frames are only limited to use at CSU Stanislaus.

If there is a low demand for A-Frames and the marketing team does not need to use them all, requestors may extend their time; however, they must fill out a new rental form stating the new return time/date.
