Vol._ 84. No. 2 , Monday. October I. 200 I Computer access on campus: Is it enough? by Geneva Corirossi Computers are a necessity to all college students. Teachers demand typed essays and assignments every day, so students are left with no other option than to find a computer. Regis professors require clean, neat essays and hardly ever accept anything handwritten. Regis University offers its students 125 public computers across the Lowell campus. 111e main location for students to complete their work is Carroll Hall, consisting of three 24-hour computer laboratories stocked with 38 computers. In addition, the library houses a number of computers for student use. Dayton Memorial Library's four floors hold a total of 48 computers. However, the main floor only allows online access to its visitors. The three residence halls have one room each with five computers for use by residents of those halls. Finally, the Adult Leaming Center offers two computer labs, each with 12 Sri.den.rs at work in one of the Regis computer labs.
