Visited by nearly 1,500 people on an average day during the academic year, the Busch Student Center is a major hub of activity for the entire SLU community and an ideal place to promote your event, organization or course offering.
Digital Signage
Digital signage is a free service for University departments, student organizations and on-campus vendors only. Outside clients will not be accepted.
- Create a Microsoft PowerPoint file promoting your event. Use the default size (on-screen show 4:3, 10 by 7.5 inches).
- Keep your text brief and the fonts large and clean (san serif).
- Submit your PowerPoint files to bsc@slu.edu. Please include "Digital Sign" in the subject line of your email.
While individual departments are responsible for creating and maintaining their own digital signage, they must ensure that the slides have a focus consistent with University brand guidelines for marketing and communication. Each department reserves the right to accept or refuse submissions. Please allow 48 hours for submissions to be posted. Digital signage administrators will not be responsible for layout and content.
Remember to also submit your news to Newslink.
BSC Directories
The Busch Student Center directories display building maps and offer a space to promote major events. Directories are located at the Grand and Ritter entrances of the Busch Student Center and on the third floor just outside of the Student Involvement Center. Promotional space on the directories can be used for major events that take place on the 抖阴pro campus and are available to the general SLU community only. No outside vendors or organizations will be considered.
The printing cost for each 25-inch wide by 42-inch tall poster is $62, or a total of $186 for all three directories. The preferred format to submit art for the BSC directories is a PDF with at least 300 DPI. File size should be at least 12 by 21 inches.
You are responsible for content, so please be sure to spell check your document. Space must be reserved and files submitted to David Young, building coordinator for Busch Student Center, at david.young@slu.edu.
Reservations are first come, first served. Please include "BSC Directories" in the subject line of your e-mail. If you have questions, please call David Young at 314-977-3402.
