    I.S. Network Engineering is now creating mail enabled groups that allow instructors to easily email their students. Details on how to use these class mailing groups is at http://oregonstate.edu/net/services/classgroups/.


Lab Machine Guidelines

  • Remove any software installed locally on the individual machines.

  • Remove desktop shortcuts, files, folders.

  • Report any computer difficulties to the Helpdesk so they have time to resolve them before the next class session.
