Technology Computer Labs

Technology Computer Labs, or computer classrooms, are primarily used for instructional purposes; however, during peak times some can be used for general access when classes are not scheduled in them.

All Technology Labs have Simmons standard built-in technology at the instructor's station; see Technology Built into Simmons Classrooms & Labs for details. Technology Labs also include laser printers using the pay-for-print system.
