College Cable Services

Enhancing student experiences with better college cable services.

From dorm room TV to rich media for classrooms and libraries, college cable services can play a significant role in helping to improve the student experience.

Higher education institutions are seeking every advantage when it comes to attracting students and increasing enrollment. With today’s highly tech-savvy student population, providing a superior university TV viewing experience is a must for institutions seeking to be more competitive.

The vast majority of college students own a smart phone and laptop, and more than 90 percent subscribe to video, music or media services. These collegians have grown up in the age of video, and they expect a superior viewing experience no matter where they choose to watch. Institutions with superior college cable services can better deliver the kind of viewing experiences that keep enrolled students happy and prospective students interested in attending.
