Media Technology Services Price Guide
The primary mission of Media Services is curricular support of academic studies of students at Brown University . Services provided for credit bearing courses, faculty sponsored events and SAO recognized Student Group sponsored events are done free-of-charge*. To insure that we consistently meet our primary mission, it is necessary to charge for services rendered to University departments, organizations and entities outside the direct curricular mission.
