Center for Learning and Technology

The CLT, on the 1st floor of Coates Library, is a hub for technology use within the academic sphere.  I had never been to the CLT before and was very surprised to see what all Trinity has to offer.  With Macs, PCs and scanners, the CLT provides areas for web and graphic design (photoshop), and audio/video editing.  This area will be very beneficial for this class and others as we work on projects.  I have not had to make any graphics or videos for any classes, but I know where to go now to access programs such as photoshop and iMovie.  The CLT also offers an area for video conferencing in HD which allows Trinity to make 20 calls at one time, outside of Trinity, and 100 calls at one time, within the Trinity network.  Such a center really puts Trinity into the future - this allows calls to other students/professors/important figures who are outside of the city, state, or even country.  I don't know if I'll ever have the opportunity to use this technology but it's great that Trinity has this available.
