The Educational Media Company at Virginia Tech is pleased to name Michelle Sutherland as Advertising Adviser.

Michelle is a recent Virginia Tech graduate who has been with EMCVT in a variety of roles since 2011. She is the former director of advertising for College Media Solutions and editor-in-chief of the Collegiate Times.

In her term as director of advertising, Michelle boosted summer advertising sales and helped train and mentor a staff of account executives. She helped develop sales and training plans and sold the first advertising in the Collegiate Times mobile application.

As a writer, she was part of a team that received first place in the Virginia Press Association college contest for coverage of the Dec. 8, 2011, campus shooting and third place for breaking news coverage of the Sept. 23, 2011, earthquake. She has also been published in The Atlantic.

We are thrilled that Michelle brings skills and experiences that are directly applicable to so many of the diverse aspects of leading and managing EMCVT’s student media mission and non-profit business.

Print advertising is important as ever and should be part of your overall strategy and budget.

Why?

Because people are still reading. Despite the perception that the under-30 crowd is leaving newspapers and their websites behind for other digital news outlets, studies are finding that the newspaper is still a vital source of information for the millennials. Some 56 percent of those ages 18-34 read newspapers, in print or online, during the course of an average week.

See the numbers for yourself in this great infographic from the Newspaper Association of America.
