The Instructional Computing Labs consist of 12 classrooms, which are typically used for both scheduled classes and open availability for students, along with an open lab in which classes are never scheduled. The Intel-based computers in the university's instructional computing labs all run the WindowsNT operating system. The operating systems and approximately 60 applications are installed and maintained using a method of hard-drive copying known as multicast disk cloning. The installations on each computer are refreshed every semester and as needed to add software or fix problems that might be discovered. Print jobs are sent to networked HP LaserJet printers located in each of the labs.
Students use pre-purchased print cards at the print station in each lab to pay for print jobs.
