Facilities

• Northland has several computer labs available for student use: The Center for Science & the Environment (CSE) room 236 (CSE236) has 32 workstations, CSE227 (the Math Lab) has ten, and Wheeler Hall basement-room 012 (WH012) has nineteen workstations.
• Residence Halls also have computers available for students: The Environmental Living & Learning Center (ELLC), Fenenga, McMillan, Mead, and Memorial halls.
• Laptops with wireless access are available for use in the Ponzio Campus Center and Dexter Library. These can be checked out, short term and within their perspective building, at no cost with your Northland ID at the Information Desk in the Campus Center or at the Circulation Desk in Dexter Library.
• Printing is available, usually with a per-page cost, in CSE236, CSE227, WH012, and the Dexter Library.
• Scanner capabilities are available in CSE236, WH012, and the Dexter Library.
• Additionally, departmental computers can be made available to satisfy some of your subject-specific applications. So, no matter what your computing need is, you can find a place on campus to have it addressed.

Bringing your own?

Some students choose to bring their own computers from home. This is a good option for anyone who wants to work during hours when a computer lab is not available. Be sure to check our recommended system requirements for the Northland College network.  Keep in mind that computer lab hours are extremely flexible and we have many workstations across the campus for your use. In brief, having your own may be attractive but it is definitely not a necessity.

Network Access

All Residence halls are wired for accessing the campus network from your room. Residence hall internet connection fees are built in to your housing fee.  For more information about computing on the Northland College network check out the Information Technology Computing web page. Note that both Macintosh and IBM compatible personal computers can be hooked up.
