Videoconferencing spreads throughout higher education

While videoconferencing systems have begun to penetrate court systems across the country, the technology is becoming increasingly accepted in other industries and markets. In fact, the higher education community is starting to use videoconferencing more regularly and effectively than other industries.

According to the school newspaper Harvard Crimson, the Harvard Law School will begin conducting application interviews via videoconferencing technologies. This will allow the high-profile graduate program to interview roughly 1,200 candidates instead of their usual pool of about 1,000.

"Sometimes admissions can feel like a bit of a black box," Jessica Soban, assistant dean and chief admissions officer at Harvard Law School, told the source. "You hit submit on an application and then you don't know what happens, and at least this way they know for certain that there are people on the other side."

Furthermore, Desert News in Utah has reported that many state colleges, such as the Utah State University Eastern campus, have begun using videoconferencing technologies to combine campuses. This means that more than 12,000 students at 25 different locations can tap into one lecture, effectively streamlining the school's system and providing more opportunities for students to reach their preferred professors despite transportation difficulties or other issues.

The center of this videoconferencing system lies in Logan, Utah at a 40,000-square-foot building known as the Regional Campus and Distance Education Building. Students that attend this particular campus can graduate with abundant opportunities from more than 48 different degrees.

As more institutions of higher education begin to implement video conferencing into their interview process, the same can work for jobs and employment opportunities. By partnering with Wisconsin court reporters, companies in the area can conduct a job interview video conference using the video deposition services provided by the court reporters.
