We have the computers that are powerful enough to deal with multiple media, not just one sort of medium. The computers, which operate approximately 30 times faster than those they are replacing, include digital technology, built-in Zip drives, and two gigabytes of hard disk space. The Zip disk can store 100 megabytes as compared to 1.4 on a floppy disk and is much more cost effective. The computers will be used in Mr. Leete's and Paul Fauerso's classes, as well as in video production classes to be taught next year. They are connected to the Internet and will be available to all University students outside class hours.
Students are unanimously enthusiastic about the computers.
We can do stuff that the professionals would do. It is about as high-end as Macs go, without getting outrageous in price. Mary Holm, Carol Hatfield, Paula Fairchild, and Okachi Kpalukwu will have articles published in Farming, World Heritage, and Third Force. Three of these students are also expecting other submitted articles to be accepted in the near future. Elsebeth Wedervang Mathiesen published an article on Fairfield in the German magazine Naturgesetz-Journal.
