FIT Center
The Faculty Instructional Technology, or FIT Center is a self-serve facility for the exclusive use of faculty and staff in the preparation of materials for use in classroom instruction, professional presentations, and non-funded research and publication. A consultant is always available to assist faculty, but this is primarily a self-service facility.
