OTHER INFORMATION

Saving Your Work

If you are planning to save your work, you must bring in your own computer disks. We will not provide one for you and we do not have Zip Drives.

The lab will not be responsible for loss of data, damage, loss of personal items, or personal injury. It is your responsibility to maintain periodic backups of your data.

Monitor Assistance

If needed, seek assistance from on-duty monitors around the lab or at the front desk.

The monitors are primarily responsible for assisting users to login/out, helping users get a session started/terminated, maintaining the general appearance of the lab, and assisting faculty members.

The monitors are not responsible for doing your work for you. Please take the time to learn how to use the computers effectively. The monitors cannot teach each individual how to do everything, nor are they expected to know all the answers. The monitors can help you look through online manuals for assistance with specific software in the labs.
