"This will be the Grand Central Station of information," Scotti said.

Scotti and Kelly are the account managers for PRSSA.

The future information center, which was installed by Smart Solutions, Inc., has three display options.

The screens can display two video signals and two computer images, which can include material from the Internet and PowerPoint presentations. Also, all four screens can display a separate image or video feed. Lastly, all four screens can work in unison to display one image or video feed.

The project, which had been in development for a about year and a half, first occurred to Russell after viewing a similar display during a visit to the Regional Learning Alliance in Cranberry Township.

Russell intends to get full use out of the newest addition to the Eisenberg lobby.

"The options are endless. We'll start basic, figure out the processes, and expand from there," Russell said.

The display, which cost $19,745, was paid for out of three separate accounts.

The Alumni Foundation took on $5,000 of the total cost, with another $10,102 coming from a SRU one-time fund, as well $4,643 from the Student Enhancement 1924 budget.
