These students will have access to prime-time TV, live news, sports, and entertainment not only on TVs in their dorm rooms, but also on laptops, smartphones, and tablets in the dining halls and lounges around campus. Campuses such as the University of Alabama (SEC), Ohio State University (Big 10), Miami University (ACC) & the University of Michigan (Big 10) now use Philo.

Starvision Television will be available throughout Southern University Baton Rouge campus starting Thursday, September 1, while the Philo IPTV services will be available in mid-September.  For more information, contact Division of Information Technology at (225) 771-3935.
