Students: Of all the things you’re stressing about before finals, technology shouldn’t be one of them.

Here’s a list of technology services provided by EITS – from printing to software to computer labs -- to make prepping for finals easy.

• Did you know? The MLC isn’t the only place with computer labs (which are usually full around finals). Try visiting other computer lab locations across campus.
• Internet running slow? Trying switching between PAWS-Secure and eduroam for more consistent coverage.
• Don’t feel like driving or catching a bus to campus? Use applications like MATLAB, SPSS, Python and more through vLab—your “at-home” computer lab. Log in here.
• Need to brush up on some basic skills before finals? Lynda.com is your best friend!
• Need to print at minimal cost? There are wepa print kiosks locations all over campus. Pay with Bulldog Bucks, a wepa account, or with a credit/debit card.
• Need access to the latest in multimedia software and hardware for digital projects? Visit the Digital Media Lab in MLC room 362.
• Need to share, store and sync large work or school files? OneDrive for Business is a safe place to do that.
• Need to borrow a laptop, tablet or camera? Visit the tech lending desk on the 3^rdfloor East wing of the MLC. But first, see items and check their availability.

And as always, our Help Desk is here for you. Submit a ticket request for assistance or chat online with one of our representatives. The Student Technology Guideis also a good reference.

It’s also helpful to stay on top of the latest technology updates by following us on Twitter (@uga_eitsand @uga_status ) and Facebook.

Good luck on your finals Bulldogs!
