Classroom Technology

All classrooms in Sullivan Hall come with standardized technologically-enabled smart podium systems. Therefore, users only need to learn how to interact with one classroom to know how to use them all.

How to use these systems:

Students can checkout miniDisply-to-VGA adpters from the LS Help Desk. Faculty should acquire their own for semester use, though there are a few they can occasionally check out from Instructional Technology.

What to expect in Multipurpose Rooms:


As our classrooms are often full, many speciality events are schedule in multipurpose rooms that often double has hallways, and/or study areas. If you are expecting to do a presentation in these areas, here is what you should know does or does not exist there.

Sullivan Conference Room 121

This room, formerly the Sullivan clinic conference room, has now been conferted into a non-classroom space for conferences. However, it still retains its full-classroom functionality. The only thing it is missing are podium and wireless microphones.

Classroom Maintenance

Instructional Technology conducts morning walk thrus of law school classrooms. We check basic services, refill wireless microphone battery supplies, recycle used batteries, and fix or repair any problems we find. While this prevents most issues from impacting classes, breakdowns and/or user errors can impact equipment during the day. Furthermore, we are continually repairing ethernet and power jacks at the student desks.

To report problems with the equipment in law school classrooms, call x4444 or send detailed e-mails to: medialaw@seattleu.edu

For assistance with classrooms outside of the law school, please contact the Office of Information Technology Classroom Support Services.
