Just this past semester, Smith has added a Gaming Lab! Armed with a couple of PS4s, PCs with Steam games, and a Nintendo Switch, the Gaming Lab is still a growing part of Hillyer. So far it has only been open Friday afternoons, and I hope it will quickly expand because it truly is a great resource! I really enjoyed finally being able to play Breath of the Wild on the Switch and checking out a few PS4 games, like Octodad. This semester, I have seen an increase in discussions about gaming--the Knowledge Lab has been holding discussions on Women in Gaming, and also offers Steam games. The Knowledge Lab also has acquired a VR headset, which I can’t wait to try out at some point! Smith appears committed to creating more discussions about the role of women in these new forms of technology and in gaming, which is both really interesting and convenient for anyone who wants to try their hand at gaming!
