South was rewired over the Winter Break and when students return on January 13th they will have two new phone jacks and a video jack in their rooms. In each room the new phone jack, labeled A , will be active and the phone jack labeled B will be there but not activated.
Cable television is now available to New South residents.
Like Village B, New South residents will receive free cable for the rest of January. On February 1st all students who have not signed up for Cable TV will have their connection turned off. The data jacks for Internet connections are proceeding on schedule. State of the art fiber wiring has been run to each room in New South and UIS has moved on to the second stage of the wiring project to provide residents with Internet connections. This stage will involve working with outside vendors to obtain both the data transceivers and the server hardware to work with the new fiber technology.
