Computers on campus

For the past couple of THR 403 classes we have talked about the frusdtrating way that Stony manages our technology on campus. The university does not have enough laptops or desktop computers on campus to satisfy the needs of the students. Instead of personal laptops for everyone, people hover over each other in the limited spaces of the SINC site to get their work printed out, or their e-mails checked. The amount of money students have to spend on technology in their tuition could buy a decent hp computer. Many of us have online quizzes and projects and we can't get everything done when we want because we're fighting for internet service or the computer lab. My compaq computer is slow and frustrating to work with and if I need to get something done fast I have to ten-fifteen minutes to get to a lab. SBU should seriously consider spending their money elsewhere for the hard working students.
