Computer Center Policy
Faculty
and staff often find it helpful to use various types of personal or
educational software packages on computers in their offices or suites. This
software can, at times, conflict with other software previously installed on
the computer. It may also result in hardware conflicts and may cause
peripheral equipment to malfunction. Our
goal is to avoid incompatibility problems and difficulties arising from
improper or incomplete installations. Therefore, we provide the following
guidelines for use of all software not previously installed by Technical
Services personnel. A
request to install outside software must be submitted to the Technical
Services Department. A form for this purpose is available in the Media
Computer Center. All
outside software, must be properly licensed to the user. A copy of the license
agreement must be made available to Technical Services personnel for review
and approval. 1. Requests
for use and installation of outside software, including personal software,
test banks, and software provided with textbooks, must be made to Technical
Services personnel. A form for this purpose is available in the Media
Computer Center. 2. A copy of
the licensing agreement and the software must be made available to Technical
Services Department personnnel at the time the request is made. 3. The software
and licensing agreement will be reviewed and approved or disapproved for use
by Technical Services Department personnel. 4. Approved
software will be installed by the computer technician. 1
