I have been covering the AV industry for more than 20 years, and I can categorically state that I’ve never met a community of peers more willing to share ideas than those in higher education. There’s always a bit of friendly coorpertition, but everyone quickly supports their counterparts and helps to celebrate each other's accomplishments.
The individuals on the AV/IT team are the unsung heroes of the university campus. Their work helps ensure classroom technology is up-and-running, easy to use, and engaging. They are on the front line when new technologies are announced that will benefit the campus and classroom. Their work contributes to the university's bottom line by attracting new students and maintaining current students.
It’s with great pleasure that AV Technology contributing writer Macy O’Hearn, and I can help the AV/IT teams from 13 colleges and universities from around the globe celebrate the completion of AV/IT projects at their respective institutions.
While at InfoComm 2022, James King, assistant director of AV Services at UNLV’s Kirk Kerkorian School of Medicine, was excited to share with me that he was part of the AV Services team, which was formed to support the AV needs of the school of medicine. As if supply chain issues hadn’t been enough of a challenge during the past few years, the team was formed just six months before the opening of the Medical Education Building. Check out the AV/IT Teams opening feature. I think you’ll be as impressed as I was.
Check out the fine work from all 13 AV/IT teams:
Bridgewater State University, Cyber Range and Security Operations Center
Hinds Community College, Workforce Division
Husson University, School of Technology and Innovation
