Guidelines for Submissions to the  Campus TV Monitors’ System

Overview
The WVU Parkersburg Campus TV Monitors’ System is a communication tool available to the campus community to inform, publicize or promote campus activities, opportunities or events. Appropriate items for posting include campus events, information of general interest, meeting notices, etc.   The high-definition, plasma tv system is available 24 hours per day and administered/maintained by the college’s Institutional Advancement office.

Audience
The broadcast is presented to viewers through television monitors in public and congregation areas: in lobbies and in the cafeteria, as examples.  Faculty, staff, students, campus visitors and the general public all view the monitors that are part of this system. Communicators using this resource should take this wide audience into consideration.

System Operations
The monitors’ broadcast is operated and maintained by Institutional Advancement.

• Updates are made daily, as appropriate.
• Institutional Advancement maintains the right to edit or modify messages for clarity, visual style, or efficiency.
• Regular messages will be suspended during a crisis to permit use of the monitors' system for emergency communication.

How to Send a Submission
Use the Campus TV Monitors’ System form.

TV Tips
Institutional Advancement offers the following suggestions to help make messages as effective as possible:

• Keep it short and simple. Remember that most viewers will take 10 seconds at best to scan a message.
• Provide viewers with a source for more information: include a name and phone number or email address.
