Chemistry Computer Lab Rules
No food or drinks are allowed at the computers.
Do not change any of the software settings used on the computers. This
includes such things as colors, patterns, backgrounds, and options. Changing these
settings can interfere with the normal operation of the computer and is considered
vandalism. Do not load any programs on the computers unless specifically
authorized to do so.
Once a computer is turned on, leave it on. It will be turned off at the
end of the day.
Do not leave important data files on the hard drives of the computers in
the lab. We routinely go through the machines and delete files that are not part of the
normal software suite. Copy your data files to floppy disks and take them with you.
Keep the lab clean and tidy. Put things back when you are finished with
them, including keyboards, mice, and chairs, and leave the computers as you would want to
find them. Do not move the computers around.
Only students currently enrolled in one or more chemistry courses have
access to the computer lab. Students working on chemistry assignments have first priority
for using the equipment. If no one is waiting, you may use the computers for non-chemistry
work but must relinquish the machine if someone has higher priority work to do.
Do not download software from the Internet onto the computers in the lab
unless authorized to do so.
Only print work that is related to your chemistry assignments. If you
need to print work for other courses please use the printers available in the general
access computer labs located around campus.
Report any problems you encounter with equipment, software or individuals
in the lab to:
a) any student assistant in the lab, or
b) Dr. James Reeves (3456), or
c) Dr. Charles Ward (3216).
