Communications & Marketing
Union College spends a significant amount of money each year on printing-- not just for official College publications, but also for flyers, posters, invitations, event programs, handbooks, stationery, course materials, and class projects. To support our campus-wide efforts to contain costs wherever possible, we ask you adhere to the following guidelines for all print projects.
- Marketing publications or pieces created by a designer
For external marketing publications or pieces done by a graphic designer, work directly with the Office of Marketing & Communications (ucco@union.edu). We will solicit bids from external print vendors and select a printer to meet your quality and budget requirements. If the Copy Center is an option for your printing job, we will refer you to printing@union.edu.
In either case, please remember that advanced planning is critical when it comes to delivering printed projects on time. The Copy Center needs prior notification to include you in their work schedule, and you should typically plan 1-2 business days for them to produce your job. For external printers, allow more time—typically at least 10 business days, starting from the time the files are delivered by the graphic designer.
Finally, for any professionally printed piece, consult the style guide to familiarize yourself with Union's guidelines.
