Dartmouth Computing Services offers many opportunities to learn about the computing environment. Some are provided exclusively for incoming students; others are offered year-round.
In late July, Computing Services will send you a letter explaining computer orientation events. Upon your arrival in September, several public computing facilities will be open on a walk-in basis. When you pick up your computer, you will receive handouts that describe Orientation events and general information about computing at Dartmouth. Online information will also describe how to use our computing resources.
On Wednesday, September 16, the "Introduction to Computing at Dartmouth" sessions will be combined with Academic Advising. In the "Introduction to Computing at Dartmouth" session, you will find out about technology resources that are available to you as a member of the Dartmouth community, including: how to register for classes, how to use BlitzMail, how to use Dartmouth's campus-wide printing system, how to protect your computer from being attacked, how to access the wireless network, how to obtain and use site-licensed software, how to get discounts on computer hardware and software, how to set up and connect your computer to the network, and where to get computing help when you need it.
Your undergraduate advisor (UGA) will be able to help you sort through any Orientation confusion and point you in the right direction for computing and other activities.
