ISU ISSUES CORRECTION REGARDING PHONE SOLICITATIONS

AMES, Iowa-- Iowa State University today issued a correction to a statement released on June 11 regarding a solicitation for advertising in a student magazine.

Scholastic Advertising Inc., an advertising agency based in Carson City, Nev., has a contract with Ethos magazine that authorizes Scholastic to sell advertising in the community. The advertising is for a publication called the New Student Record. Ethos is an Iowa State student magazine.

On June 11, the university, responding to inquiries from area businesses, said it had no knowledge of the magazine or any authorization given to the agency to use the university's name in solicitations. The university regrets the error.
