Please abide by the following lab rules, which apply to all labs.
To verify your eligibility to use the computer lab you may be asked to show
your Salisbury University student I.D. card.
Tobacco products (including chewing tobacco) are not allowed.
Food is not allowed. Non-sealed
beverages are also forbidden. Beverages with a screw-top cap are permitted, but
must remain closed.
Copying copyrighted software is not permitted.
Game playing is not allowed in the labs.
Keep your work area clean and quiet.
Headphones are to be used at all times when listening to music or sound on
the computers.
When wearing headphones, please adjust the volume so that only you can hear
the sound.
Pick up any trash you create.
Log off of the computer when you are finished.
Please push in your chair when you leave.
Printers are not to be used as duplicating machines, limit printouts to two
copies. Printouts should be picked up promptly, any printout not picked up
within two hours will be recycled.
Students have a quota
of 300 printouts per week. Use your printouts wisely.*
Skateboards, roller blades, or bikes are not permitted.
Cell phone use is not permitted in the labs. Please turn off or set to
vibrate all cell phones and beepers when using the computer labs.
Phones in the labs are not meant for personal
conversation. For calls lasting longer than two minutes, please use a public
phone available in all university buildings.
Unattended children are not
permitted. Any child brought into the computer lab is the sole responsibility of
the parent/guardian.
If there is an incoming class, we ask that you save
your work and move to another lab. Please do not disturb the classes that are in
session.
No additional software may be loaded onto the hard drives of
any academic computer without first consulting IT.
You must check with the lab tech/consultant before attaching personal
(non-SU-owned) hardware to a lab computer, such as headphones or usb/thumb/flash
drives. Use of non-SU equipment with our computers is unsupported and done at
the users risk, and the user is responsible for any damage that may be caused by
use of such non-standard equipment with our lab computers.
During busy
times, students who need to do academic work can log on.
Computers and network ports are for Salisbury
University use only. SU does not provide ports for personal computer access in
the labs.
You will be asked to leave the lab for failing to
comply with the above rules. Any individual causing a disturbance or failing
to comply with the lab rules or with the Acceptable Use Policy will be reported
to the appropriate authorities.
*We understand that sometimes even the most judicious
use of your print quota may not be enough during some
weeks. We often try to anticipate high print volume
periods by automatically increasing print quotas during
those times. However, if you do find yourself out of
prints during a week, see the Help Desk. Depending on
how your prints have been used, we may be able to give
you a one-time print increase (e.g., if you've made 300
copies of one document instead of printing out a master
and making copies on a copier and now need more
printouts, we won't be able to help. If you're printing
out a 350 page paper for class due tomorrow, we'll
probably be able to help you get those last 50 pages.). |
