COMPUTER LAB

  1. The Computer Lab is located on the main floor of the building. There are six computers and two laser printers available for student use.
  2. The computer lab may be used for course work, computer-assisted instruction directly related to course work, and for other applications relevant to nursing education.
  3. In addition to the computers in the Computer Lab, there is a computer in the library and three computers in the back room of the library and an additional laser printer.
  4. The computer lab is accessible during the same hours as the Library. Instructors may reserve all or part of the computer labs for class sessions requiring or teaching computer use; otherwise, no reservations are accepted.
  5. All of the computers have the web based EBSCOHOST icon, the OPAC catalog icon, and Microsoft Office, including Word, Excel, and PowerPoint loaded onto them.  All have internet access.
  6. There are also several NCLEX-RN (nursing exam) programs on the computers. Some of the NCLEX-RN programs require the CD-ROM of the program in order to do the exam; some of the NCLEX-RN programs are stored on the computer itself. CD-ROMs of the NCLEX-RN programs are available for check-out from the Librarian. All of the NCLEX-RN programs vary in content, format, and printing.
  7. While anti-virus software is installed on the computers, the School cannot guarantee that every virus will be detected and neutralized. Users are therefore requested to bring in only disks, CD’s or memory sticks that they are certain, are free of viruses.
  8. Assistance with the computers or the installed software may be obtained from the Administration Secretary and the IT Department.
  9. Under no circumstances are food or drink allowed in the computer lab.
