Tech and Trek at Hiram College - President Lori E. Varlotta, University Business

This fall, Hiram College becomes one of just a few universities in the country—and the only four-year college in Ohio—to launch a campuswide mobile technology program. Thanks to a $2.1 million gift, Hiram will issue all full-time undergraduates and all faculty and staff an iPad Pro, Apple Pencil and keyboard bundle in an effort to promote “mindful technology.” As we see it, mindful technology is more than simply knowing how to use technology. It is also about delving into the when, where and to-what-extent questions that are sometimes out of sight or overlooked in the technology-saturated world we now inhabit. https://www.universitybusiness.com/article/tech-and-trek-at-Hiram-College
