Computers Grades:
College Prowler Take
Students and professors regularly use the network as a means of communication. Students have access to a program called eCollege, which allows them to supplement the classroom experience with discussions online, or turn in assignments via the Internet, rather than print them out. This service also provides students with an online gradebook that keeps track of their progress. There are numerous computer labs on campus, though they sometimes fill up completely. Aside from the occasional technical lapses, the TCU network is fairly reliable and consistent. The Computer Help Desk offers a wide variety of services and tech support. The network occasionally shuts down, but not frequently, and usually only for a few hours at a time. The Computer Help Desk is a good resource for students to utilize when things go wrong, and when it comes to computers, things often do. Students Speak Out

The computer labs are always open and easy to access. A student wouldn't have to have a personal computer, but it just makes things easier. The Wi-Fi is pretty good most of the time, especially with Macs.

The computer network is okay. I've never used a computer lab here on campus but when I do pass by one they always seem to be crowded. I think having your own computer in college is a must. We have Wi-Fi in the dorms and everything.

Computers are becoming more and more of a pivotal part of campus life in general. The computer labs on campus are usually pretty crowded, especially around finals and midterms. I would definitely suggest for students to bring a computer with them to college here and a laptop is much more convenient than a desktop computer.

The network here is fast most of the time. There have been a few viruses going around, but since then it’s been pretty good. Sometimes it’ll go down for a while, but never for too long. The computer labs tend to be crowded, especially around lunchtime and in the early afternoon. I recommend anyone coming to TCU have his or her own computer. You could function without one, but it’s definitely more convenient to have your own. |

I hear the computer network is really fast, and every time I go into the computer lab, I can find a seat. However, if I lived on campus, I would still want my own computer, just to have it in my dorm. |
