According to the Warnell newsletter or Graduate Office, you are scheduled to have a graduate defense in some of our classrooms/conference rooms soon. We will typically stop by your scheduled room 30 minutes before you begin your presentation to assist with any AV system setup or computer issues, if necessary.
There are a few things to know before your presentation:
- Each room has a Warnell IT Department contact sheet of instructions housed on top of the podium cabinets. Use the QR code to send in a ticket for assistance prior to your presentation or call 706-542-7638
- The majority of our rooms (1-101, 1-107, 1-201, 1-209, 1-210, 1-303, 1-304, 1-306, 1-307, 2-100, 4-418, 4-419/421, 4-132, 4-516, 4-517 and Keadle) have extended and/or non-extended display capabilities. This especially comes in handy when doing PowerPoint presentations and using Presenter View. 4-301 DOES NOT have an extended display option at this time. There is a desktop computer built-in to the TV monitor in this room.
- All of these rooms have Microsoft Teams and Zoom capability. If you have a virtual option listed for your presentation, Keadle, 1-304, 4-132, 4-516 and 4-517 have Logitech cameras mounted on the rear wall of the room. Other classrooms have Logitech web cameras housed on top of the desktop computer monitors. Room 4-301 has a Logitech web camera mounted above the TV monitor, which also has a built-in microphone. The TV monitor speakers are active for meeting audio. The TV monitor also has a USB port on the front which can be used to upload presentations via USB stick. Room 1-309 has a web camera/soundbar combo. This room is LAPTOP connection ONLY, so users must connect both the web camera/soundbar combo via USB and an HDMI cable to your laptop computer to host a virtual session
- Warnell IT recommends using Zoom or Microsoft Teams from the desktop computers in the rooms, if possible, rather than your laptop computer (except for room 1-309). In most cases, the equipment needed to coordinate a virtual session is already provided and is connected via the desktop computer. Devices, such as a document camera, mounted wall cameras and ceiling microphones are also part of the infrastructure.
