AUDIO/VISUAL (A/V) OUTAGES

WHAT: MH 122: ugrad1 cannot display anything on the projector
WHEN: Since February 2019
DETAILS: Communication between ugrad1 and the projector does not currently work. The A/V in the lab is managed by JHU's A/V group, Kit-cats. They have notified the manufacturer of the A/V connection equipment of the problem, and they are waiting on a fix from the manufacturer. You can still connect a laptop to the projector using the instructions available at the table.
