Do not install software unless specifically needed by a course and authorized by an instructor. Downloading and installing unauthorized software consumes valuable disk space and can introduce viruses. We are very strict about this rule. If you violate it, you can expect to have your account revoked and your files deleted. Limit breaks to under 10 minutes.
Short breaks are reasonable.
Keep them under 10 minutes. If a monitor notices that a workstation has been left unattended for more than 10 minutes, then the monitor can end this session and allow another user to take over the workstation. Use ICS printers for ICS work only. The ICS department spends thousands of dollars a year to buy reams and reams of laser printer paper. A very high percentage of that paper is almost immediately thrown away.
