just now (741+ words) Nori Barajas-Murphy is a higher education ambassador at CDW. When I meet with higher education leaders, one theme comes up again and again: People just want things to work. Faculty want to teach without logging in twice. Students want to get where they're going without wondering where they can park. Staff want their tech to keep up with the speed of their jobs, not slow them down. That's the heartbeat of a frictionless campus. At CDW, we think of "frictionless" as the sweet spot where technology disappears into the background because it's doing exactly what it's supposed to do. That might sound simple, but in practice, it takes intention, infrastructure and the right partnerships. Click the banner below for the tools to enable your modern learning environment.

Growing up, it was an Easter tradition for his family to watch the annual TV broadcast of The Wizard of Oz. Tazewell remembers being struck by the visuals of the 1939 film. "Going from sepia tone in Dorothy's house to technicolor when she enters into Munchkinland " that's one of the most magical transitions that I can remember," he says. Tazewell worked to capture the same magic in Wicked: For Good. When Glinda descends from her bubble in iridescent blue and lavender, or when Elphaba sweeps through the sky for the first time in a weathered trench coat and trousers, their clothes are an integral part of the story, telling us who these women have become.

just now (346+ words) Published Dec 1, 2025 3:23 PM EST Steam, the video game storefront used by over a hundred million gamers every month, requires that developers disclose if their products use AI-generated content. Someone at Valve, however, apparently forgot to ask Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney if he'd be okay with this policy first. In a discussion on social media, Sweeney " whose company makes the megahit game Fortnite and is a major rival to Valve with a gaming marketplace of its own " fumed about Steam's AI content disclosures, and agreed with a post calling for Valve to drop the feature because AI use "doesn't matter anymore." "The AI tag is relevant to art exhibits for authorship disclosure, and to digital content licensing marketplaces where buyers need to understand the rights situation," Sweeney wrote last week. "It makes no sense for game stores, where AI will…...
