WIRELESS AND WIRED CONNECTIVITY (WI FI ) The need to access posted assignments by way of the Student Integrated Administration System (ISAS), Library Information Management System (LIMS), and other on-line resources has become more important as students acquire their own personal laptops and thereby become less dependent on using the computer laboratories. Wireless access is currently available in areas that are mainly used by students. These are: • Calvin McKain Library • Caribbean School of Architecture (CSA) • School of Computing and Information Technology (SCIT) • Alfred Sangster Auditorium • School of Hospitality and Tourism Management (SHTM) • Faculty of Education and Liberal Studies (FELS) • College of Health Sciences (COHS) • The Gazebo in front of SCIT (near the Administration Building) • All student dormitories The WiFi signals spread sufficiently to service the general areas used by students. Wireless access is also found in several classrooms and lecture theatres. “EXC E L L E NC E THROUGH KNOWL E DG E ” SUP POR T SE R V I C E S FOR ST UD E NT S 61
