CEI Campus Marquee Guidelines
CEI’s outdoor marquee shares information with the broader community. Messages should focus on events open to the public, opportunities available through CEI, and college announcements relevant to the community.
For CEI Use Only
CEI’s campus TVs and outdoor marquee are reserved for college-sponsored events, programs, services, and announcements. Requests must come from CEI employees or recognized student clubs through the appropriate college request process.
These displays are not available for public submissions, outside advertising, or promotion of activities unaffiliated with CEI.
What Can Be Promoted?
Marquee content may include:
- Events and activities open to the public.
- Enrollment opportunities and upcoming courses.
- Community services and programs.
- Major college milestones and announcements.
Activities or reminders intended only for current students or employees are better suited to campus TVs or other internal communication channels.
Design Requirements
All marquee graphics must be created by Creative Services to ensure proper sizing, readability, and consistency with CEI’s brand.
Messages must be brief and easy to understand at a glance. Creative Services will simplify the wording and prioritize essential details for the display.
How to Request a Marquee Graphic
Email Creative Services to begin the design process. Include:
- The event, opportunity, or announcement you would like to promote.
- How it applies to the community.
- Key details, including the date, time, and location, if applicable.
- Your requested display start and end dates.
- A contact person for questions.
Submit requests as early as possible to allow time for design and scheduling. Placement and display dates depend on community relevance, available space, and college priorities.
How to Submit a Slide for Display
Submit a ticket through the IT Help Desk Portal and select New Ticket > Marketing > Marquee.
Include:
- Your completed graphic.
- The requested display start and end dates.
Submit requests as early as possible to allow time for review, any needed revisions, and scheduling.
Coordinating Promotion Across Channels
Campus TVs, the outdoor marquee, and social media serve different audiences and have separate request processes. A campus TV request does not automatically include social media coverage.
For additional promotion, review the relevant guidelines and submit a request for each channel.
