ECHO: Equipment Checkout Office

The Equipment Checkout Office, or ECHO for short (room 2144), provides Stamps students, faculty, and staff with a wide variety of resources at no cost to the user. ECHO focuses primarily on offering audio/visual equipment, but it also provides a range of drawing and animation tools. Users may borrow resources on the spot or place a reservation online ahead of time. Reservations for the 2006 Photo/Video Studio are made through ECHO, too.
