Computer Usage in the Learning Assistance Center

The computers in the Learning Assistance Center have a variety of tutorial and computer assistive interactive programs on them to supplement class information. We do ask that students use the email station in the LAC or the computer lab to check all email. However, students may use the computers to do research on the Internet, type a paper for class, access Blackboard, etc. We highly recommend that students bring a floppy disk with them in order to save their work.

History of the Alice Rowe
Learning Assistance Center

Dr. Alice Rowe served as a faculty member at Western Kentucky University from 1976 through 1999. Many of Dr. Rowe's dreams have come to fruition with the successful establishment of the Community College Learning Assistance Center. On April 22, 2004, the Center was renamed the Alice Rowe Learning Assistance Center in her honor.
