Digital advertising screens are a remarkably effective way to convey your message in full color to thousands of passers-by in the Michigan League, Pierpont Commons, Palmer Commons, and several Campus Computing Sites.

Advertisers may reserve advertising space on over 20 digital screens around campus on a day-by-day basis. The minimum reservation is three days; the maximum reservation is one semester. Advertisers create their designs, save them as a .jpg file, and submit them to SORC staff before the deadline, and SORC Managers upload the artwork.

1920 pixels wide x 1080 pixels tall
Minimum 72 ppi (pixels per inch)
"RGB" mode
