IBM-compatible and Macintosh microcomputers, as well as plain terminals, are available in the Library lab and the Campus Center lab. Many of the microcomputers in these labs are also attached to the VAX system. CTS student consultants are available at the Library and LRC facilities to help students, staff, and faculty become familiar with computing resources, and to help interpret error and system messages or answer computer related questions. Consultants cannot help write programs or tutor in the use of programming languages. Copies of this shareware and freeware can be made at the lab.
Disks are for sale at the bookstore.
In order to have access to the VAX system, students, staff, and faculty must obtain a VAX username. Username application forms can be obtained and turned in at the Library or LRC labs. Faculty and staff need to show a current ID card and one piece of ID with their SSN on it to obtain a VAX computer username. There are currently 32 dial-up access lines available. VAX line printers are located in the LRC lab, in the Library lab, and just outside the Library entrance.
