Campus Vision is an electronic marketing tool to be used to inform the campus community of upcoming university activities and services. Campus Vision is displayed on TVs in the lobby of each residence hall, as well as many of the academic buildings, Reeve Union, and the Culver Family Welcome Center. It is managed by IT and administered by the AV Support Coordinator. 

Guidelines

The Campus Vision system is organized by playlists. The guidelines below are for the campus-wide playlist, but each area should follow a similar set of principles when creating and scheduling content.

  • Campus Vision is available only to recognized student organizations and campus departments. 

  • IT, Reeve Marketing and UMC reserve the right to edit any request for appearance, available space or clarification. Furthermore, IT and UMC reserve the right to refuse messages that may be considered offensive or in violation of copyright. 

  • Messages may run for a maximum of two weeks. Extensions to this period will be considered on an individual basis and require permission from the AV support coordinator. 

  • Each organization can have a maximum of four slides displayed on Campus Vision at any given time. Exceptions are made on an individual basis

  • Static slides run for a maximum of seven seconds. 

  • IT, Reeve Marketing and UMC will attempt to accommodate all requests; however, the submission of a message does not guarantee that it will be posted
