Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Mizzou offers many computer labs; they are located in various buildings throughout campus as well as Ellis Library. They are usually not very crowded, but there are a lot more students visiting the computer labs during finals week. Most students, however, have their own laptops.  

Tech support can be very helpful when the issue is not big, but if it is a big issue, don't expect some kind of miracle. If you have a Mac, take it to the Apple store; you will have better luck with getting things fixed. The Internet connection is not very reliable. It is getting much better with the additions and updates, but there are days when students will not be able to get on the Internet for hours. This doesn't seem like a big deal until you check your email and notice that there are multiple important emails from teachers/advisers and clubs.

It's still mainly a Windows campus, but it is changing over to Macs. Overall though, you will have easy access to either. There's always a computer on campus to use if you need it within reach.

The computers at my school are very sufficient. They are fast, easy to use and available at twenty-four hours a day. It is very nice to have a personal computer though to keep all work done for school right by your side.

Apple Brand Seems to Be Preferred

Most students and teachers use Apple computers. This is probably due to the fact that you get such a good deal on them at Tiger Tech. However all the computer labs offer both apple and pc products. You're more likely to find an available computer in a residence hall lab rather than in the library.

College Prowler guides are in the hands of students throughout the entire process. Because you can't make student-written guides without the students, we have students at each campus who write, edit, and survey their peers for every guide that we publish.
