For consultation about videoconferencing please contact videoconference@lss.wisc.edu.

Ad-Hoc Sessions

Van Hise 286, 290, and 294 have a high-definition camera, speakers, microphone, and computer with videoconference software installed. Because the room is configured for the best possible videoconference experience, we ask that you use the computer in the room.

Semester Long Video Conference Courses

UW-Madison collaborates with other universities to provide videoconference courses through the Big Ten Academic Alliance.

Van Hise 254, 290, and 294 use dedicated advanced videoconference hardware to share high-definition audio and video between peer institutions. Coordination for semester-long videoconference courses requires consultation, technology vetting, and instructor training prior to the start of the semester.
