The Infinite Corridor Poster Display program is managed by the Campus Activities Complex (CAC) and provides recognized student organizations and Institute departments with access to designated panels in the Infinite Corridor to promote their programs and activities. All displays must follow MIT policies, including the Poster and Display Policy and align with MIT’s mission, values, and culture.
Eligibility and Permissible Uses
Infinite Corridor poster displays may only be reserved by recognized student organizations and Institute departments, labs, centers, and institutes (DLCIs). Use of the displays is limited to the promotion of Institute or MIT-recognized student group events, activities, programs, services, as well as educational, research, professional, or volunteer opportunities relevant to the MIT community.
Location and Panel Specifications
Available displays are on the north-facing wall of Building 7 and Building 3 in the Infinite Corridor, immediately east of Lobby 7:
- Panel A (first panel): 67 1/4″ × 44″
- Panel B (fourth panel): 63″ × 44″
- Panel C (sixth panel): 68.5″ × 44″
Measurements represent the complete visible display space; materials may not extend beyond the frame or be tucked underneath the edges.
