  • Faculty Computer Systems
    Every fall semester, ITS reviews and prepares to implement the Academic Technology Plan (ATP).  The ATP provides funding to replace a portion of the faculty office computer systems every year. Early September, ITS typically contacts those faculty they have identified as being eligible to have their computer replaced (only computers are replaced, other hardware/software is not funded via ATP). Replaced systems are then rebuilt and trickled to staff office locations that are in need of better equipment. If you have questions regarding this process, contact Mike Holliday (x7140).
       
  • Lab Computer Systems and Software
    ITS updates/replaces technology in computer labs on a rotational basis, every summer.  Faculty are encouraged to submit their software needs for teaching labs every winter semester, in preparation for the following academic calendar. For more information pertaining to reservations and software ordering, review the Lab Policies posted online.  For additional analysis and planning, contact Mike Holliday (x7140).
