The Lecture Hall of the F.W. Olin Building is a 80 seat capacity tiered lecture hall with multimedia presentation capabilities.
The faculty has found this lecture hall easily adapts to classes of various sizes. Small and moderate sized classes adjust quite well to presentations using the large screen and the AV/Presentation equipment. Dr. Damon Waitt teaches Genetics in this facility.

Dual remote-controlled slide projectors are also mounted in the booth. A multi-speaker sound system complements the multimedia video systems.
