LCD Screens
There are a number of LCD screens in various buildings around campus. In order to have information posted on these screens, you need to do the following:
- Save your PowerPoint as a .jpg with the take-down date at the end. (e.g., Topic_MM_DD_YY.jpg = LCDGuidelines_03_24_21.jpg)
- .JPG files for LCD postings are due to the various LCD mangers (see listing below)

Best Practices
- Use a wide screen PowerPoint to build your LCD Screen .jpg file or download a pre-made template.
- Review Babson brand guidelines, download logos and images from the Graphics, Icons and Templates section
- Use photos to enhance your slide
- Use simple and short messages:
- The slide is only up on the screen for 10 seconds (think of the slide as a billboard)
- No long URLs—your audience cannot click the URL and must type the URL in a browser. If your call to action is a URL, push people to the Hub or department pages and list the link there
- Remember your audience
