Fifty percent of the students in the residence halls own a computer and are connected to the campus network backbone. Clarke's ratio is 1 computer for every 6 students. Upon activation of student Internet account, a web index directory is created for publishing each student's Web page. Contact information for faculty and staff is available through the Clarke Web site. Student directory information is restricted to the secured Clarke campus Intranet.
Most student organizations publish their organization's Web site through the Web development office.
This issue has been reviewed over the last seven years. The college provides ubiquitous access to campus computing through general and departmental labs offering specialized software and hardware. Labs encourage collaborative computing and provide a reliable public forum for student and faculty interaction. Campus computing and network access costs are included in tuition and technology fees. Information Technology staff minimally support student-owned computers.
