Math Emporium

The Math Emporium or Empo is a large computer lab operated by Virginia Tech. It opened in 1997 with the aim of improving learning outcomes in high-enrollment math courses. Since opening in 1997, it has had lockers.

Many freshman-level math courses are taught online through the Math Emporium. Some students find the use of Comic Sans on their quizzes and practice material for these classes jarring.
