Technology plays an increasingly important role on campus.
In addition all computer labs on campus and residence halls are wired for high-speed access to the university network and the Internet. Network connections for laptops are available in some classrooms and labs, and wireless connections will be available in the library by Fall 2001. Computers are used frequently for the delivery, completion and submission of individual and team class assignments, research, and communicating with professors, friends and family. There are hundreds of computers available across campus for students who don't own one or who want to use specialized software installed on certain lab computers. However, if you own your own computer, you can use it whenever you want to from the convenience of your own room.
