Instructor Use of Computer Classroom Facilities

Alarms/Security

Facilities with alarms are armed whenever a computer drop-in lab or classroom is closed. If you are using an armed facility before or after normal hours, you will be responsible for arming and disarming the alarms. Facilities that are not equipped with alarms are to be locked with the doors closed when not in use.

Check Your Classroom

We strongly encourage you to check out the equipment. Be sure to test both the software you will be using in your class and all projection equipment. This is your responsibility.
