Digital Studio to Upgrade Technology, Triple Service Base with $66,000 Grant

Launched in 2015 as a pilot project, the Digital Studio — used as a tutoring space for students and faculty to hone software skills for a variety of multimedia projects — is currently housed in a small, portable unit on campus. Faculty plan to use the newfound funding to move into a larger, permanent space, upgrade software, add computers and buy new furniture, allowing the studio to trip the number of clients it serves.
