MIS Computer Lab Guidelines
The lab is designated for students who are MIS majors and minors.
Non-MIS students are not allowed to use any of the facilities in
the MIS lab, unless they have obtained special permission. Non-MIS
students may use other computing facilities available here.
When the lab is extremely busy, workstation usage must be based
on the PRIORITY of the project. All MIS-related
schoolwork has higher priority over non-MIS-related work and personal
usage. MIS Team projects have higher priority than individual projects.
In any case there is a deadline for a project that is very near
students working on that project shall have priority over all other
students.
DO NOT give away your login information to any
non-MIS students. If you are accompanied by non-MIS friends, you
must supervise them at all time. Otherwise, you will be held responsible
for all of their actions and your account will be terminated.
You may bring food and/or drinks into the lab, but DO NOT
make a mess and you MUST clean up after yourself. If the computer
lab does not look clean, this privilege will be taken away for all
users.
You ARE NOT ALLOWED to install any software on
the workstations. Individual files and programs stored in the local
drive will be deleted without further notice. If you have suggestions
about new software that we should have in our lab, please address
them to your professor or the lab consultants.
All personal files must reside in the individual directory (U:\
drive) and MUST NOT exceed 100 MB total. Large
files can be recorded to CDs.
You MUST log out (and make sure that you ARE logged
out) before you leave. If you leave your computer unattended for
a long period of time, we have the right to log you out, especially
when the lab is busy.
DO NOT lock any workstations if you know you
will be gone for a while (more than 15 minutes). If we see any locked
workstations, we will unlock it immediately without further notification,
and all unsaved works will be lost.
You have a 250 pages printing quota per semester and you should
not exceed that limit. Delete the print job if it hangs. If it blocks
the print queue, you must report it to one of the lab consultants
or the lab manager IMMEDIATELY!
The computers are equipped with headphone jacks. You may bring
headphones to listen to music, but you must not disturb others.
There is a self-served lost-and-found box on the shelf by the entrance.
When you find something (i.e. disks, books, pens, etc.) that does
not belong to you, please put it in that box.
