I'm assuming advertising on this site is not permitted. So, I'm wondering how to report this because I did not see any distinct area to do so.

I received the same private message from another poster named "mneral." You are correct that third party advertising is prohibited under CC's terms of use. Following is a link to CC to report the problem: http://www.collegeconfidential.com/contact.htm
I also plan on contacting CC about this.
