What We Do

We provide audio/visual equipment, production assistance, and technical support within the Norris University Center, Norris Satellite Venues, and other locations across campus. We also provide self service rental of equipment.

Please note: we typically do not operate, service, or connect to existing AV equipment in any non-Norris run spaces.
