Computing

The computing center provides computing for students and faculty of the College of Arts and Sciences. We also provide support for office computers and computers in classrooms.

Check out our labs.

If you are a student please make sure you have read and understand the Student Guidelines for responsible computing.

Scanning

We have several options for scanning photos, documents, slides, and film. The scanning lab is located in Gambrell 002. See the tutorials/ instructions page for help with scanning.

Video Editing

We have several devices to support our video editing software. In our research lab you will find a mini DV deck for logging mini DV footage. We also have a capture device for logging non-controllable cameras or devices. We have a DVD and VHS player for capturing from DVD or testing your DVD's out. We also have a Hi-8 deck for capturing Hi-8 footage. This equipment can be used by signing in at the help desk. You can also use this room if you want to get away from the traffic of the main labs or if the classrooms are in use.
