SCHEDULE GUIDELINES:
The computer labs are CLOSED whenever the COLLEGE IS CLOSED, however, if the college is NOT CLOSED and ONLY CLASSES ARE CANCELLED, the computer labs will be OPEN for regular hours unless otherwise posted.

To get headers and/or footers on Powerpoint handouts: View > Master > Handout Master. You can move the content around and modify where the header/footer is displayed.

The college is closed May 26 and July 4, 2008.

We have had a problem with several of our printers spitting out blank pages (or mostly blank pages with some strange characters at the top of the page).

We are asking for your help in cutting down on wasted paper–please press the orange Stop button on the printer when you see blanks coming out. If you know how to cancel that print job, go ahead; otherwise just let us know in the office (you can pick up the phone and it automatically dials the office) and we’ll take care of the problem.

Our message to stop using floppy disk has gotten out there, and it seems just about everyone has started using USB drives to save their files.

But USB drives by themselves are not sufficient, because they can be lost, stolen, and in rare cases stop working properly. Without a backup copy of your files, your work is gone.

We urge you not to learn this lesson the hard way. Backup before you need it, because it can happen without warning.

Good backup plans include the following options:

• email yourself the file
• use a second USB drive
• print your paper (you can scan it and create a new file from the text)
• burn a CD or DVD
• use an online file-hosting service, such as .Mac or filesanywhere.com/
