First-Year Issue August 25The first-year issue is geared for our incoming freshmen class and showcases many fun and interesting activities in the Elizabeth-town area. Very popular issue for advertisers to introduce them-selves to our new students through advertisements and coupons.

Homecoming October 13Etown’s Homecoming Weekend coincides with Parents Weekend and brings many different readers onto campus. This issue will focus on the hundreds of alumni coming back on campus and is a great spot for advertisers to show their support for past Blue Jays.

Welcome Back January 26Our Welcome Back issue will focus on the start of the spring se-mester, and is a great opportunity to reach out to new transfer students or students who were abroad in the fall. Many businesses preview their events/specials during the spring semester months.

TGIS April 26TGIS (Thank God It’s Spring) is an annual event at Elizabethtown that brings together the College and community for one final fun weekend before finals. This would be a great issue to offer ads geared toward fun or graduating seniors/job opportunities.
