Smart Cart/ Classroom Development

OIT has asked Larkin Simpson to take over the planning, coordination, and management process of implementing smart classrooms and carts. Larkin has accepted and we are tremendously excited to have him take this responsibility on. Jimmy Powell will still be involved with the actual implementation and set up of the carts and classrooms.

Please work with Larkin as he gets up to speed with the existing projects and as we move forward with future implementations. Thanks again to Larkin for stepping up to this challenge and taking it head on.
