New Marquee Coming Soon

December 08, 2017 - 12:54 AM

The electronic marquee at the corner of Grand and Temple avenues will be getting a much needed upgrade this December.

The marquee, which has been frequently breaking down over the last few years, will be signing off for the last time on Monday, Dec. 11, 2017. A larger, high definition display will be functional by the start of Winter Intersession on Monday, Jan. 8, 2018. A more powerful video processor will greatly enhance the marquee's video capabilities and make it possible for the college to update messages in real time.

The project involves a number of groups across campus including Facilities Planning and Management, Technical Services, Information Technology and Marketing. The sign was purchased from Multimedia LED and will be installed by Williams Sign Company.
