Classroom/Lab Policy

These rules are to protect the lab equipment and to ensure the general safety of all who use the lab.

Availability

  • Students should use the designated computers in the appropriate Computer Pod (island of computers) in the Interactive Learning Centers (open lab area) for their lab work. Check ILC lab hours.
  • Instructors have full control of the classroom during their scheduled lecture/lab period. It may be open to other students if the instructor so allows it. This policy is based upon the principle that it is a priviledge, not a right, for a student to use the classroom other than during his scheduled class period.
  • If you are allowed by the instructor to use the lab during his/her schedule class period please note that movement about the lab should be extremely limited. Show politeness and respect while working in the lab by avoiding any movement or sound that could interrupt the class.
  • The Computer Graphics classroom labs are available for lab work when no class is being held only when there is a full-time employee (instructor or technician) in the room. Students may remain in the room at the end of their class if another class is not scheduled right afterwards and a full-time employee remains. Upon leaving, the full-time employee will lock the lab and ask students to leave.
  • SCANNER AVAILABILITY: In the event a room does not have a scanner connected to each computer, instructors are encouraged to have their students sit where they are not using a scanning station so that other students may use them. Computers with scanners connected to them should be vacated after the scanning session has ended (in those labs where there is not a scanner for each computer). Students at scanning stations who are not scanning should be prepared to vacate at the request of any student wishing to use the scanner.

DOs and DON'Ts

  • Students may not plug or unplug any power cords or cables attached to any of the lab equipment. (The only exception is any USB device, which are hot swappable) When necessary, only CCSN employees can do this.
  • Students are not permitted to reconfigure or change the software setup on any of the computers.
  • DO NOT bring food or drink into the lab area. A strict open container and open package law will be enforced. Crumbs in the keyboard, drinks in the disk drives, or anything like unto it, are more than inconvenient÷they will cost you lab privileges.
  • Please keep personal belongings out of walking areas and off of computer equipment (especially monitors).
