🎥 Did you know the CMS first opened in Fall 2014 as the Creative Media Studio? 🧐 Let’s take a look back at what our innovative department used to look like over 8 years ago! 🎞️From having just 7 iMac computers, one recording studio, and four types of equipment for checkout, our department has grown tremendously over the years and we have you the students to thank for that. 🥰 We hope our added services, expansions, and new direction have helped you tap into your creative side to expand your imagination. 💙
