The Computer Learning Center 4 is also referred to as the New Media Center (NMC) and is located in the basement of the Communications building in the Southeast wing.

The NMC is a unique facility on campus. It represents a working partnership between the College and Information Technology embodied in the combination of an open access Computer Learning Center (CLC4) with dedicated classrooms/labs specifically designed to meet the needs of faculty, staff, and students engaged in producing digital media. The Center supports the research, teaching, and service activities of the College and University.

Two specialized classrooms/labs are equipped with enhanced computers, unique peripheral devices, and powerful software to facilitate work in various visual and audio media. The labs support work in digital imaging, web design, multimedia authoring, digital video and audio, MIDI applications, 3D modeling and animation and large format inkjet printing. They support both classes and independent project research by faculty and students. College staff utilize the labs to produce digital media to help disseminate research results, enhance and expand the educational activities of the College, and assist community groups in various projects.

While the Center primarily serves the College of Mass Communication and Media Arts, it is also dedicated to maintaining an open access policy for other members of the university community having need of the unique tools and services available on campus only in the MCMA NMC. Every effort is made to accommodate requests for access to the Centerís labs.
