Oakland Ad
So why is there a banner ad at the top of Bronco Stampede prompting people to go to Oakland U. For their Masters degree?

RE: Oakland Ad
yeah it's totally unrelated to the site you're on. for instance, i'm seeing a bunch of google phone/tablet ads because i frequent the google play store. as far as CSNBBS is concerned, the ad is an empty shell that an ad company automatically fills in for them

Target marketing. Kind of like when Target was sending pregnancy info to an address and the father kept telling them nobody there was pregnant. Then he found out his daughter was.

We discussed this example in one of my WMU MBA classes last year. Suck it Oakland.

RE: Oakland Ad
I would rather see this than an Oakland ad on a WMU site.
