Purpose
To discuss some problems that could be encountered in the Computer Lab, and the procedure to solve those problems.
It is important to contact the AVIT department whenever there is a problem encountered in the Westminster Computer Lab.
For example, if there is a hardware problem, failure to report the problem just delays the problem being fixed, and becomes someone else's problem...
Procedure For Reporting a Computer Lab Problem
If you discover a problem in the Computer Lab, you should inform the AVIT department.
Please do NOT inform an individual, since the AVIT facilitator is best suited in notifying the best volunteers/professions to solve the problem in a timely and cost-effective manner.
