Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Middlebury sports a fully functional wired and wireless network in all of the residence halls and academic buildings, as well as computer labs dotted throughout campus. Considering the size of the school, Middlebury has more than enough computers to go around—both Macs and PCs. All of the lab computers are in good condition and connected to the network. However, even with the availability of computers and a 24-hour lab, most students bring their own laptops. It is nice to be able to work in the comfort of your own dorm, as Facebook stalking people on a public computer can be awkward!

You will almost never have to worry about getting access to a computer on campus, except during finals week, when you may have to try a few computer labs before you track down a vacant spot. There is a broad range of software in the labs, all available for student use. If you ever “lose” that 20-page paper, there is a help desk staffed by students who can recover lost files, uncover the intricacies of lab software, or give you suggestions on how to avoid future computer meltdowns. Furthermore, the system, with its endless reels of server space, allows for the brilliant exchange of movies, music files, and more within the network.

Accessible

wireless is great and fast and available everywhere - for added speed, ethernet cables can be used in all dorm rooms.

laptops are helpful and most people have them but there are computers for student use in almost every building on campus so there will always be one nearby for use, especially in the libraries.

if you have a Mac, the school bookstore is a licensed Apple store and can fix your computer in a day or two usually. always within a week, even if it needs to be sent out

Fairly Plentiful

There are computers in many different spots on campus. The campus has both PCs and Macs. Almost everyone has their own computer, but there are definitely ways to access computers on campus.

An Excellent Means to an End

Means to an end (education) is what computers and networks should be and that is exactly what you will get. The computer services and networks are top of the line and will help you cover every need that may arise. Bring your own laptop for additional ease but you will definitely not miss it if you don't as the campus is stacked with some of the latest computers available. Also the help desk will help with any problems you have with your computer and has a host of great software the college has licensed.
