MS PowerPoint is a presentation software program that is apart of the Microsoft Office package. Almost everyone has seen or made a PowerPoint slide show but few know the principles of doing it right.
In a “hands on” environment, this class will get a beginning PowerPoint user on the right path to producing effective slide shows using the tools in MS PowerPoint 2007.
We will also cover basic design principles, and the use of colors and animations to create a show that will grab your audiences attention.

The study areas on the 2nd & 3rd floors of the Medical Library are now officially closed to patrons. All furniture and computers have been moved to the first floor.
The study rooms on 3rd are now closed for usage.
For safety, we ask that you use the 1st floor for research purposes or the study room 179 in the Daly Center.
This does not effect access to the offices on the 2nd and 3rd floors as well as the History of Medicine Room.
On Monday, May 11, movers will begin removing furniture from the 2nd & 3rd floors of the library in preparation for renovation.
Once the furniture has been removed, all computers and study space in the library will be on the 1st floor. Computers and study carrels from the library have already been moved to the Daly Center for use during the renovation (Room 179) Study Lounge) to provide additional study space for students.
Construction of classrooms and study space on the upper floors of the library is expected to begin later this month and be completed in early 2010.
