− | The computer lab consists of 29 computers (designed as 28 for students and 1 for instructors). Each of these stations consists of the computer, the keyboard, the mouse, and a chair with arms. These are a unit. Which should make it clear that you should never take a keyboard, a mouse, or a chair from this space. There are no chairs with arms in the Maker Hub or meeting rooms. So please, leave them in there. The keyboards and mice are intended for these computers. If you need a keyboard or a computer for your machine, or if one is broken somewhere, inform the toolroom. If there is a dire situation where you need to make use of one of these systems, as always, RESET THE SPACE. It is not acceptable for your peers to arrive in a class the following morning with computers that are missing mice or chairs. | + | The computer lab consists of 29 computers (designed as 28 for students and 1 for instructors).

| There are large whiteboards in the computer lab that are very useful for … er … marking on. And here are some good rules for whiteboards - again - '''RESET THE SPACE'''. This means that you don’t take markers or erasers from other whiteboards because the ones at your space are missing or not functional. Go to the toolroom and get new ones. They are freely supplied. If the toolroom is closed, maybe you can use your own makers. Whatever you do, '''RESET THE SPACE'''. And when you have finished using a whiteboard .. '''ERASE IT'''. This is not only resetting the space, but being a professional. Others will want to use it and you are making them clean up your mess. As a side note, this is a public space. If you want to save your whiteboard writing, take a picture. Writing “Do Not Erase” is not an acceptable action for a whiteboard. You can save it yourself and reproduce it quickly later. Again, '''BE PROFESSIONAL'''. | | There are large whiteboards in the computer lab that are very useful for … er … marking on.
