- The university where I work provides a computer and a mainfram link for
- each faculty member's office. Mainframe is used for student advising,
- university calendar, email, bitnet access, communication with students,
- research, and most other academic computing needs for a liberal arts
- college, including library catalog search. On that note, a faculty
- member can search the library holdings and order a volume, which the
- library staff will deliver to the faculty member's office!

- We have 11 student-use computer labs on campus and mainframe links in
- 1/2 of the dorm rooms. All but two of the labs have mainfram access.
- All freshman comp instruction is on computer, as is much of the nursing
- school instruction. If you want more information I will be glad to
- supply it.
