Computer Service Center
The Computer Service Center (CSC) is the administrative
hub for all College computing, and serves the need of both academic
and administrative users. Technology resources include both departmental
and public access computer labs. Davis & Elkins College subscribes
to the Microsoft campus Agreement and students and faculty members
have access to word processing, database management, spreadsheet,
presentation software, and Internet access programs. Discipline-specific
software in support of the academic program is also available in
support of specific courses. A majority of computers are connected
to the campus fiber-optic network giving access to a variety of
campus resources. Students with computers may connect to the campus
network via an Ethernet port in the residence halls. Off-campus
dial-up Internet service is also available. Campus supported email
accounts are available by request. Incoming students living on-campus
must register with the CSC in order to access the Internet.
Davis & Elkins College recognizes the importance
of computers in the current information age and is pleased to offer
purchasing suggestions, limited hardware and software support, network
connections, and e-mail for its students. D&E has a fiber-optic
backbone between most campus building providing Ethernet to all
dorm rooms and may classrooms. The Campus network has access to
