Digital Displays

The McCombs School of Business Digital Displays are a collection of video screens placed in public areas throughout the McCombs' complex of buildings. They are a free resource for MSB student groups, faculty, staff and departments for announcements and event advertising. Please indicate through a logo or language on your slide what MSB/UT department or group your slide is affiliated with. Advertisements for private companies will not be accepted. UT Individuals or departments outside of the McCombs School may contact Esign for more information on posting to the displays.
