People who are presenting at the conference and need technology:

To be fully prepared, please save your presentation in several ways, including on a flash drive, in a Google folder, and on your laptop.  The projectors in the art department will hook up to a laptop with an HDMI cable. If you are presenting in Memorial Union on Friday, there will be tech support, but that does not necessarily mean they will have the cord/dongles you need.
