Our digital signs increase awareness about Olin events among faculty, staff, students, and visitors. The dynamic signs provide a daily schedule of events; real-time social media posts; faculty, staff, and student profiles; and rotating event slides. Faculty, staff, and student organizations can contribute events relevant to the Olin community. Each slide appears for 10 seconds at a time.
