Praebius with the help of the ad systems technology deployed in the university campuses claims that it is serving over 100,000 students with over 23,000 thirty second spots per university campus on cable TV networks. They are in negotiation with many universities and are also planning to add 60 more campuses in their hold.

 

Dave Allen, Ad Systems V.P. of Sales, said: "Our Ad sales have been ringing the bell this month and last. We are finding it necessary to consider adding more networks in future installations to serve the needs of the many regional and national advertisers that are looking to us as a niche advertiser to get their messages out to the 18- to 25-year-old college student."

 

He added that many universities operate their own cable system that feed television programming to campus dorm rooms, university housing, classrooms, offices and public areas that serve a campus' total population. Cable TV programming like CNN, ESPN (News - Alert), MTVU and TBS can be seen in lounge areas, including student union areas, lobbies, and many other public areas on campus.
