WSU Spokane
Campus Digital Signage
Digital signage is a cost-effective and sustainable way to spread the word about your organization or event. Screens are located in the following buildings:
- Kirk H. Schulz Student Academic Center
- Nursing Building
- Pharmacy Building
Digital signage should be error-free and uploaded one week prior to desired start date. All digital signs are subject to the following policies and design specifications. Questions about digital signage can be directed to spok.sign@wsu.edu.
- All submissions must clearly identify the submitting organization.
- Health Sciences Communications reserves the right to edit or reject submissions for clarity, content, copyright infringement, and aesthetics.
- Ads that do not meet design specifications will not be published.
- Ads must be received one week prior to requested start date. Ads not received by deadline may not be published.
- Ads may be rejected if the content is deemed inappropriate including, but not limited to:
- alcohol consumption outside of university sanctioned events
- pornographic material
- drug use
- weapons
- Ads will not be archived; groups will be responsible for resubmitting ads for reposting.
- Those submitting ads which include copyrighted materials (likenesses, footage, images, etc.) must confirm they have the approval to use said material.
- Submissions from RSO’s must clearly identify affiliation with Washington State University. This affiliation may be included through a statement (“WSU RSO”); with a URL, email address, or social media handle including “WSU”; or with the Registered Student Organization logo.
- Registered Student Organizations (RSOs) have permission to use WSU spirit marks, but not the university logo. More information is available at brand.wsu.edu. However, using the WSU spirit mark in the design does not count has clearly identifying affiliation with the university.
- WSU departments should include their official university logo; affiliation with Washington State University should be clear.
- University departments should refer to brand.wsu.edu and follow required university identity and style guide standards.
- All ads must be sized 1920×1080 pixels, maximum size of 500 kb.
- Images must be saved as .jpeg and will be played for 15 seconds per rotation.
- Keep clarity and aesthetics in mind by using easy-to-read fonts and clear photos.
- Make sure to include all pertinent information such as date, time and location of an event, and your organization name/logo.
- Excessive blank space along the sides is not permitted.
- Less content is better for digital signage, as viewers are typically on the move and there are many ads in rotation at any given time.
- Ensure the file title is under 50 characters.
