Digital signage managed by the Ronald Tutor Campus Center serves as a visual communication medium to inform students, faculty, staff, and visitors about USC events and services. This service offers the opportunity for officially recognized campus organizations and university departments to publicize events or broadcast announcements that are of student interest or student-oriented in nature.
Announcements may not:
- Endorse a political issue or candidate.
- Promote or condone behavior that violates University policies and/or values, or local, state, or federal law.
- Encourage the sale or consumption of alcoholic beverages or of tobacco-related products.
- Include commercial advertisements for businesses, organizations, entities or individuals not associated with the University.
***Content that does not fulfill the requirements above will not be displayed.***
