Maclabs, PClabs Groups Share Insights on Running Campus Computing Labs

If you're responsible for managing or supporting a Mac or PC lab on campus, you'll probably want to know about two new discussion groups that specialize in lab administration issues: maclabs@lists.uoregon.edu (for Mac lab staff) and pclabs@lists.uoregon.edu (for PC lab staff).

These discussion groups, which were founded by Architecture and Allied Arts computing lab manager Chris Wiesemann, are forums for lab administrators and staff to compare notes, share troubleshooting insights, and keep each other apprised of the latest news in lab maintenance and security techniques.

In addition to online discussions, the groups hold regularly scheduled meetings on campus. Maclabs meetings are held on the fourth Thursday of every month at 11 a.m., and PClabs meetings are held the fourth Friday of every month at 11 a.m. Advance notice of these meetings is posted on the mailing lists.

This summer's meeting schedule is as follows:

Maclabs:
11 a.m. July 22     105 Computing Center
11 a.m. Aug 26     251 School of Music

PClabs:
11 a.m. July 23     Lawrence Hall (contact Chris Wiesemann for details at 346-2082)
11 a.m. Aug 27    (location TBA)

To subscribe to either the maclabs or pclabs mailing lists, send an email to majordomo@lists.uoregon.edu In the body of the message, type :
