The Department of Information Technology sponsors and hosts numerous social events throughout the year.
TekLAN
What is TekLAN? Twice each semester we sponsor TekLAN, a marathon gaming event open to all students. We contract with STEAM to provide free gaming for our LAN party. Games include League of Legends, Minecraft, many popular games from STEAM, and console games. Check out the video below, courtesy of The George-Anne, Georgia Southern’s student newspaper.
