Our computer allocation budget does not allocate a computer for any part-time positions on campus. The Information Technology Staff understand the need for computer to do some simple, standard applications for all College employees. Whenever possible, part-timers should share computers with either full time or other part time employees. The Information Technology department will do its best within its budget constraints to supply every office with one computer.

The only computers we can allocate to offices occupied by part time employees are computers that have just been replaced and are still in good working condition. These computers are intended for only standard applications such as Word Processing, Email, limited web browsing and CD-Rom access. All other uses should be done at the Information Technology Center and the Faculty lab located in the Founders building. The computers in these locations are high-end machines that provide numerous computer applications, additional peripherals, and are maintained and supported by the Information Technology staff. Everyone in the College community is welcome to use the computers at the Information Technology Center.

The part time offices that have a need for a computer should contact Mimi Royston (x7167) to request a computer. It may take up to 2 months to supply an office with a replaced computer in order to insure it is in working condition. Usually, the office will not be able to specify whether the allocation will be either a Windows or Apple computer. Under special circumstances we will do our best over time to provide the preferred platform for the office. Our administrative office needs must be prioritized over the needs of other offices due to their specific office applications and the need for platform consistency within these offices.

Thank you for your patience when requesting a part time computer allocation. Please remember this a service that is not funded by the college and therefore, can often take time to fulfill the request.
