The network provides members of the university family with the hardware and software necessary to obtain and use informa– tion. All students living in a residence hall benefit from 24-hour access to the network. To enable students to take further advantage of the network, public laboratories, with a total of 120 stations, are conveniently open to the students. Students living off-campus can utilize modem access for some projects. Training Most students will learn how to use the network through online tutorials and help screens that explain the programs. Computer laborato1y assistants are available to answer questions whenever the labs are open. The University also offers training seminars that provide instruction on a variety of commonly-used software applications such as word process– ing, spreadsheets, presentation programs, and web page development.
