Besides state-of-the-art computers in every academic building, the library, and the residence halls, you'll also discover a vast array of multimedia resources to help you develop advanced skills in some of the most exciting fields in computer arts and technology, including desktop publishing and graphic design.

Brewster students enjoy extensive access to Macintosh G5s as well as cutting-edge software employed by today's real-world professionals in two full-lab environments:

Desktop publishing and journalism lab: In our dedicated lab, you’ll learn journalism basics and how to write for publication, scan and edit text, place text into page layout formats, and create attractive, professional-looking documents. You’ll apply these skills working on the Brewster school newspaper, The Brewster Browser, created entirely by students. They also design and lay out Outcroppings, a school literary journal, and the Winnipeasaukean, the school yearbook.

Multimedia lab: Our graphics lab rivals—and often surpasses—that offered by many colleges. You’ll become an expert in Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, MetaSolutions Bryce 5.5, Painter and Poser as well as other industry standard software. You’ll acquire techniques in graphic and multimedia design and have the opportunity to apply your skills to full-motion animation, including digital media and the mastering and editing of movies.
