The document camera that Dr. Nakamura using

This document camera is very useful for showing documents as well as showing a process of calculations/brainstorming (hand drawing): quick focus, low cost, enough bright with less light, easy to fold and carry, etc. If you are an instructor and have to teach tech or design content online, I recommend having one.

Zero Tolerance for Harassment, Aggressive Pressure or Intimidation

Re: Campaign: Zero Tolerance for Harassment, Aggressive Pressure or Intimidation

In April 2021, the MECH department community will start a campaign called “Zero Tolerance for Harassment.” Our community does not accept any harassment, aggressive pressure, or intimidation among students and faculty, College Lab Technical (CLT) staff, CUNY Office Administrative (COA) Staff in the MECH department as well as the College and University levels. We believe this campaign is helpful for working to prevent any inappropriate behavior around us.

If you support this campaign, please sign this form: https://forms.gle/BizyHCjhXmnQSRoYA

If you see something, please say something (or just email me at mnakamura@citytech.cuny.edu). I’m happy to hear any concerns from you.
