INTRO

As of April, 2023, Audio Visual support options for Malone Hall has changed. We are generally no longer using Kit-Cats for A/V support as we had for many years (except, perhaps, in certain circumstances). Instead, WSE now has their own A/V support team, the Center for Learning Design & Technology group, and that's who we will utilize for A/V support.

CS also maintains projectors in the CS Ugrad Lab (MH 122) and the MSSI Lab (MH 316.) See below for A/V support contact info for those two rooms as well. In addition, Hackerman B-17 has been used by CS in the past for seminars and classes. Should CS continue to use that room, and you need A/V support, that info is below too.

NOTE: CS IT does not administer or repair general A/V equipment or services within Malone Hall or for Hackerman B-17's lecture hall, other than the CS Undergrad Computing Lab, Malone Hall 122. Please see below for A/V support options.
