Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Got a project due and your computer crashed? Visit one of LMU’s numerous computer labs around campus. The main computer lab in the new William H. Hannon Library boasts 80 computers with capabilities ranging from Web browsing and word processing to image and video editing. The computer lounge in St. Roberts’ basement houses approximately 25 computer Mac computers, which offer the full Microsoft office suite. Labs get crowded, especially toward the end of the semester, and the charge for printing adds up quickly. The labs are nice for group projects, but for a last-minute paper, you are better off with your own computer and printer to avoid competition for a spot in the labs. If you need to use one of the computer labs, it might be worth it to try the smaller labs in University Hall. Although they are open for limited hours most of the semester, these labs tend to be empty and quiet.

Words of caution when using the LMU computer network: the system is shut down for maintenance often—usually at the most inconvenient times. Viruses also run rampant through the system and attack users through e-mail. Often, users receive e-mails containing viruses, so use up-to-date anti-virus software with warnings about the latest virus on campus.

LMU Computer Life

There are an abundant amount of computer labs at Loyola Marymount University one in almost every building. The majority of computers are Macs like in the library, but they are loaded to work as PCs as well. There is a printer in every computer lab. Some printers have free printing, normally found in your major department and the library is .10 per page but your student ID card comes with $25 of printing money every year. Most people have their own printers for convenience, but you could live off library printing. The network is average, just like any other the wireless is slow sometimes, but most of the time there is nothing to complain about. There is campus wide wireless access and people use their laptops everywhere. The library is crammed full during finals and midterms so it may be hard to find a computer there so having your own is nice then, but there are lots of computers everywhere on campus.
