The OSA has joined forces with Event Services and Student Union to help provide audio and video resources and support on campus with the development of the new Media Services division. Media Services provides basic audio and video equipment and technical support on the Washington University in St. Louis campus for non-class activities. Media Services assists students, faculty, and staff with their audio and video needs at a centralized location for a minimal cost. This unit also serves as the primary provider for technical support in common spaces (Gargoyle, Graham Chapel, Homes Lounge, Lambert Lounge, McMillan Lounge, Umrath Lounge, Women’s Building Formal Lounge) reserved through Event Services.
