Over the summer the Media Services group oversaw the installation of new presentation equipment in McGaw Chapel. A projector was permanently mounted from the ceiling and a DVD/VCR combo unit was added in the control room. A custom-designed technologically-enhanced podium was added for use on the stage. The podium easily accommodates a computer and monitor, and features a built-in Pixie Pro unit used to control the projector and DVD/VCR unit.
The new equipment provides a more professional environment for presenters and a better experience for the audience. It also greatly reduces the time required to setup for multimedia presentations. This upgrade was part of a broader IT initiative to enhance the presentation capabilities of larger campus venues.
