NECC Computing Guidelines

• Computer Labs may be used by current students. Students must log in at the kiosk by the helpdesk before accessing the computer lab.
• If you do not have a NECC ID, you can obtain one at the Welcome Express Desks on both campuses. On the Haverhill campus, the Welcome Express Desk is located in the Behrakis Student Center on the first floor of the SC building. On the Lawrence campus, the Welcome Express Desk is in the lobby of the Dimitry building.
• Students, staff, and faculty members are responsible for following all policies outlined in the Computer and Network Usage Policy. Anyone violating a computer policy may be subject to disciplinary action.
• Log off computers. When finished with a lab computer, please log off from the computer. 
• The use of computers in the labs is for academic purposes only.
• Print Responsibly. Lab printers default to double-sided printing to save paper. Please scale PowerPoints and PDFs to conserve toner and paper. If you need help scaling a document or are printing a large job, please ask the Academic Technology Assistants for help.
• Software installation on public computers is prohibited. If you require assistance with computer applications, inform the Academic Technology Assistants monitoring the lab.
