Computer Lab Information and Rules
General Information
There are three computer labs and one multimedia lab at John Cabot University, housing
a total of more than eighty computers. The Chapel Lab is located just inside the
main entrance, behind the student lounge. The Secchia Lab is located on the ground
floor of the Kushlan Wing (across the Lemon Tree Courtyard). The Kushlan Lab is
located on the second floor of the Kushlan Wing and can be accessed using the staircase
from the Lemon Tree Courtyard. The multimedia lab is located in the library.
Lab assistants are always available in the Secchia and Chapel Lab. They sit at the
desk in the front of the lab and are trained to help students with basic computer
issues such as starting applications, helping with printing problems, and scanning
documents. If you have any questions or problems using the computers, you should
always ask the lab assistant first. If the lab assistant is unable to help you,
he/she will contact someone from the ITS office for assistance.
Computer Lab Rules
- No food is allowed in the computer labs. Drinks are permitted only
in covered containers.
- Please keep noise to a minimum: low level chatting is permitted.
- It is strictly prohibited to share your user ID and password with other students
or friends. If you are caught doing this, your account will be suspended
for the rest of the semester.
- If you are absent from your workstation for longer than 5 minutes
and there are other students waiting to use the computers, your computer will be
given to someone else.
- Priority is given to students who are working on school-related projects.
If you are chatting, checking e-mail, surfing the internet, etc., you may be asked
to give up your computer to another student who is waiting to work on a school project.
- Do not install or remove any software on computers in the computer labs. If there
is software that you need installed, e.g. digital camera software, please ask the
lab assistant to install it for you.
- The ITS Department is not responsible for files stored on the hard drive. Since computers
in labs are cleaned up daily, we advise students to save files to their
x: drive.
- Please do not print transparencies.
- Most items found in the computer labs will be placed in the lost and found box.
Items
of value, such as cell phones, keys, etc. will be given to the Lost and Found located
in the Front Office.
- Use of the lab's telephone is not permitted except in emergency situations.
