New Rules For PC Lab

The Personal Computer Lab, located in the Student Mall, now requires all faculty, staff and students to log onto the computers.

Faculty and staff can log on using their NJITDM username and password. Students can log on using their ACADEMIC-NT username and password. Students also can create the ACADEMIC-NT account by accessing http://mailhost.njit.edu and follow the instructions on creating new accounts, choosing ACADEMIC as the account they want to create. Faculty and staff can request an NJITDM account by calling the NJIT Computing Helpdesk, ext. 2900, as long as they already have an ADMIN account.

Faculty members should not log onto a personal computer using their NJITDM account for student users. Faculty members also should not share their NJITDM account with adjunct professors. Both of these are a violation of the NJIT Computing Agreement. Instead, advise all students to create their ACADEMIC accounts before class. Their accounts will be activated within 24 hours.

Teaching, Learning and Technology will hold faculty development workshops and seminars during the fall 2000 semester. For further information on Teaching, Learning and Technology activities, access http://www.njit.edu/tlt/. Workshops and seminars are listed under the Calendar of Events link to sign up for events.

Walk To Support Breast Cancer Research

The university community is encouraged to take part in a noncompetitive walk to save lives when the American Cancer Society holds its annual Making Strides Against Breast Cancer, Sunday, Oct. 15, in Renaissance Military Park, in downtown Newark.

Every three minutes, a woman learns she has breast cancer, but it’s not just a woman’s disease. If the disease hasn’t affected you yet, chances are it will – whether through a personal diagnosis or that of a friend, family member, co-worker or neighbor.

Registration is 9-11 a.m. To join NJIT’s team or make a donation, call Barbara Mitchell, ext. 3134; Jacquelynn Rhodes, ext. 3407, or Talina Knox, ext. 4671.
