Communication is a vital part of keeping college students, staff and faculty safe on campus. Digital signage offers a way to present information quickly across an entire campus. In case of fire, severe weather or hostile situation, digital signage can share breaking news and offer life-saving details. However, to ensure the most effective digital signage system, it's important to consider:

  • Compatibility. Many departments might purchase their own digital signage systems, but the signage must be able to display messages campus-wide.
  • Cost. Universities must choose whether to upgrade the entire system or purchase a product that ensures digital signage is compatible across the campus.
