The Louisiana State University (LSU) Music and Dramatic Arts Building as well as the Tiger Band Hall will soon feature a new interactive digital kiosk built by Caleb Langley, an LSU undergraduate engineering student, according to a WDSU 6 report.

The information kiosk features include a full faculty and staff directory, touch-friendly version of the 3D LSU campus map, interactive list of LSU events, an overview of LSU's performing arts degree programs, application and admission information and information on philanthropy opportunities with the LSU Foundation.

"This new interactive interface will greatly enhance the way our community can explore the opportunities our college has to offer, right from our lobby," Eric Lau, dean of the LSU College of Music and Dramatic Arts, told the news outlet.

Langley will graduate this month with a B.S. in computer science. "I'm incredibly thankful that I got to work on such a fun and challenging project that is going to have a real-life impact here at LSU," Langley told the news outlet. "Hopefully this system will continue to help people long after I graduate."
