And here is an article about converting your powerpoint presentation into a video file using the authorstream web site:

You can use the lab in ML 110 to do your recording if you don’t have access to PP and a microphone elsewhere.

Saturday’s Record featured a review of the new Warhol exhibit at the KW Children’s Museum. One of the big questions here is whether or not Warhol belongs in a children’s museum. What do you think? Read the article and weigh in.
