Media Production

The Center for Instructional Services (CIS), under the direction of Dr. William Jernigan, provides faculty with media support for their classroom instruction.

Art, Graphics, Signs, and Certificates

Janet Doty-Potts, Manager
495-7143

CIS graphic artists work directly with a client in producing creative art work, including transparencies, signs, posters, graphs, maps, illustrations, charts, computer graphics, and diagrams. In addition to these general services, some of the artists specialize in cartooning and in producing specialty brochures. Art work can be used in its original form or it can be made into slides for inclusion in slide/tape or educational television programs.

When requisitioning art work, please fill out a Graphics Request Form available from your department secretary. This form should include complete instructions for the preparation of your art work and be signed by your department chairman. From the simplest sign to the most complex illustrations, CIS graphic artists assist you in creating exciting and useful visuals for use in your classrooms.
