ITS's Learning Environments and Media Production (LEMP) department supports SU's technology classrooms, university computing labs, classroom equipment loan, academic media production, and academic events.
The intention of this document is to clarify the role of LEMP in supporting events and to identify support limitations related to facility, staff, or equipment resources. Technical support for events is a fee-based service and ise limited to those sponsored by the University administrative and academic departments. LEMP's priority is focused on Academic Events and Classes.
Please note that LEMP does not provide video streaming support or services for events.
Please review the sections below as guidelines to assist event planners in working with LEMP and/or commercial service providers. LEMP will be as flexible as resources allow in working with these guidelines.
Two weeks or more preferred. Events are supported at the discretion of LEMP based on availability. Adequate lead time is necessary to provide quality technical support services. One hour is the minimum set up time required for events.
To request support, please fill out the request form on the LEMP Event Form webpage. If you have a question regarding your event's technology needs, please contact the ITS help desk at 443-2677.
There may be events where LEMP is unavailable for support. In those instances, LEMP may be available to act in a consulting role (in regards to communicating event requirements and facility information to commercial service providers). Some companies with which LEMP has worked successfully with in the past are listed below.

Please note that to provide Event Support, LEMP will need a Chartstring or ID from the sponsoring faculty/staff member or department before the events happening. Please note that LEMP is unable to accept fund "13" chartstrings as payment. Chartstring/IDs can be provided via email communication with the LEMP events team or through mail (Room 112 Lyman Hall, 100 College Place, Syracuse, NY 13244).
Our charges are as follows:
Equipment Fees:
(Equipment fees are based on 24 hour periods)

Q. What is so special about LEMP Academic Event Support?
A. The amount of technical expertise needed to plan and implement the event requirements put this type of service in a different category beyond the regular use of classroom technologies.
Q. How can one request event support from LEMP?
A. Requests can be made by filling out the request form on the Learning Environment and Media Production site.
Q. Where can Event Support services take place?
A. Normally inside Auditoriums, Classrooms, Large meeting places such as Hendricks Chapel, and open lobby areas. We currently only support events on main campus. Some occur outdoors where we have limited involvement. In this case, we outsource to a vendor to provide services.
Q. What services do you provide for my event?
A. We provide consulting to determine your requirements and what we can provide. Equipment and operational services for audio engineering, CART, video recording, and presentation displays are provided.
Q. Do you provide staging and theatrical lighting services?
A. No, we will consult and outsource for those services.
Q. Will LEMP Event Support service regular classes?
A. LEMP Event Support can be engaged for classes. In some cases, classes may have a need for additional unique technology.
Q. Can student groups take advantage of special events services?
A. Typically no, but when a student group is associated with a major university event sponsored by an academic department exceptions can be made.
