Remarks
Whereas Many majors require specific computer programs to complete class assignments;
Whereas The majority of these programs are only available at certain places on campus, none of which are open 24 hours a day;
Whereas If a student cannot complete these assignments before the computer labs close and they don't possess a laptop or lack the means to purchase the expensive software packages on their own, then they are rendered unable to complete their assignments;
Whereas The Central Library is open 24 hours a day and the computers on the fifth floor are controlled by OIT;
Whereas No student should be denied the tools that they require to succeed.
Be It Further Resolved That The primary programs utilized by various majors (Photoshop, SPSS, etc.) which currently are only available on lab computers be made available on the fifth floor of the Central Library.
