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.
