SpectrumU has channels for every taste and desire. Everything from Deluxe, Sports, and Premium programming to Music Choice is available. You can get inspired to build your dream house on HGTV, envy non-dining hall food on Food Network, and keep up with current events on many news channels such as CNN and Fox News.

Connecting to SpectrumU is easy. Visit https://watch.spectrum.net to watch on your web browser. If you’re watching directly on a TV, each dorm room is also equipped with one campus-cable TV jack. The Telecommunications Department, located in Library North Ground Floor Room 216, will provide a 10-foot coax cable for you to connect your TV to the wall jack. Remember: you must auto-tune your TV to enable it to recognize the BU campus cable programming channels.
