When you get here in August, your orientation schedule will include a time for obtaining your photo ID, at which time you will sign a Telephone and Computing Services Policy Acceptance form. Your accounts will be active by the time new student orientation begins , but if you have not submitted the signed form within a week of arrival on campus, your accounts and ResNet access will be suspended until you get the signed form turned in. When using campus computers, email, or in-room ResNet connections, students have to abide by the Terms and Conditions for Computer Accounts . If you're like most Wheaton students, you'll bring your own computer and connect it to the campus network, using the in-room ResNet connection. But even with your own network connection, you'll still find yourself using the computer labs.
Some classes use software available only in the labs.
Many students use the laser printers in the labs to give their papers that extra touch. The main student computing labs are in Buswell Library and the Billy Graham Center. If you live in one of the main residence halls, you will also have access to the Dorm lab associated with that residence. If you don't bring a computer, you'll of course be using the labs a lot.
