Although theft has not been a problem on this campus, the laptop because of its portability can be easily stolen if left unattended in public places. Computers can be purchased from local stores and over the Internet. All residence halls have telephone connectivity. An on campus dial-in service is offered for free. Students must sign up for this in the Applied Technology office.
Software is available in the bookstore at a very competitive price.
Most software companies offer Academic Editions for students that are full-featured software. We will be installing Microsoft Office 2000 Developer in the Applied Technology Labs and Cooney library soon. If you are taking a class using Access 2000, you will need to have that version.
