The University of Santo Tomas has wall-mounted, and free-standing display boards for advertising university-wide events and activities. The displays permit events to be advertised professionally and consistently. With the availability of these displays, the use of individual wooden and metal easels is not permitted in hallways and lobbies. This also addresses safety concerns that arise from easels placed in high traffic areas.
