    \n

    The term \u201cSandbox\u201d in industry refers to an environment for experimentation and trying new things. We strive to create an inviting, collaborative space for exploring and learning new technologies, and to support student learning for our courses, in ways that resonate with today\u2019s  students. We hope this will further their interest in Information Technology.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

    We’re located in Smith 234, next to the trading room. The CIS Department also operates the CIS Studio classroom in Smith 212.<\/p>\n

    We invite you to join us!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
