New charging stations at Ohio University’s Baker Center promise to decrease the amount of time it takes to charge a mobile device from hours to just minutes.
There are now four Quickbooth charging stations, commonly seen at airport terminals, scattered around the facility. They’re located where large groups of OU students often congregate and sit for an extended period of time.
“We focused on the bobcat student lounge. We got one in the conference hallway on the second floor, where a lot of people sit there and study. We have one in the student Senate office which has a large amount of students who spend their time there, as well as the Front Room,” said Dustin Kilgour, executive director at OU’s Baker Center.
The charging stations include chargers for all different types of phones, and they even have chargers for iPads and other electronics.
“It has three iPhone chargers, which will charge the iPad, iPhone series one through four; it has four micro-USB, and it also has an iPhone five charger,” said Kilgour.
Many students say they already taking advantage of the university’s newest $1,500 investment.
