  1. our group decided to do a photo booth project
  2. and the group members consisted of me, Eliza, Rinehart,
  3. Matt Waterman and matt Samuelson
  4. And we did this project for Information Systems 40 53.
  5. So a little bit about our project.
  6. Our goal was to create a photo booth in the business career center at marquette,
  7. in the new business building.
  8. And our main goal was to help students update
  9. and upgrade photos for job related social media's like
  10. linkedin or handshake or other
  11. job
  12. sites that they may be using to find a job after they graduate.
  13. So we wanted to do this by setting up a camera linked to a laptop with a
  14. professional looking background in um,
  15. near the business career center because we thought that
  16. this would create a wonderful opportunity for students.
  17. Um, it would have easy access for the students so that they wouldn't have to um
  18. go somewhere else to have a professional photo taken
  19. and this could be
  20. a great tool for students to use
  21. as they're applying for jobs. Um, one of the things we all noticed as a group was that
  22. a lot of students use
  23. photos from high school from their senior senior photos and
  24. photos that are outdated or may not look very professional
  25. and this is something we want to help market students with so that we are looking
  26. very employable to our future employers.
  27. So some of our project goals,
  28. we wanted to successfully provide the photo booth service to students um,
  29. as I mentioned earlier and we wanted to create
  30. an option for students that was on campus,
  31. as many
  32. underclassman may not have cars or an ability
  33. to go elsewhere to take a professional photo as
  34. well as they may not have the funds to have that taken right now in their lives.
  35. Um, so we thought this um
  36. option would
  37. be easily accessible for students and there's really no reason why
  38. they wouldn't be able to
  39. um make use of this opportunity.
  40. So we also wanted to ensure that our photos we were providing would be high quality
  41. for the students and that they are professional
  42. photos that an employer can look at and think
  43. um, that's someone that I would want to hire at my company.
  44. I think it's something that employers really look at when
  45. they're looking at candidates and that can sometimes get overlooked.
  46. Um,
  47. sadly in society we still do judge people on their appearance a lot and so I
  48. think it's really important for students to be
  49. looking their best on different social media platforms.
  50. So we also think this is a way to make
  51. marquette look more appealing for
  52. potential future business students at marquette
  53. um, or any student, I guess really,
  54. because not only business students can take advantage of that, anyone
  55. at marquette can take advantage of this. Um,
  56. we think when people are going on their tours
  57. looking to see which college is right for them,
  58. this is something that
  59. might make marquette look more appealing
