Xerox DOCLAB printer moves to first floor
The Xerox printer "DOCLAB", supporting the Doctoral Lab and the MUP Computing Lab, has moved into the room occupied by the MUP Computing Lab. This will make it more convenient for users of both those labs (as well as MiSo, the Spatial Analysis Lab, and faculty and staff in that area) to pick up their work.
A2 Monthly Siren Testing
The monthly tests of the outdoor warning sirens by the city of Ann Arbor Office of Emergency Management are scheduled to begin this month. The tests are scheduled for the second Tuesday of each month (except during winter months) at 1pm.
Therefore, the sirens are scheduled to be tested tomorrow (March 8) at 1pm.
The siren system is intended to be used as a warning for people who are outside that bad weather is approaching. The sirens also can be used in cases of hazardous materials spills or other life threatening events.
A&A Campus Computing Site down early Tuesday 3/8
The Campus Computing Sites group has scheduled an equipment move Tuesday, 3/8, between 7:00 a.m. - 8:00 a.m., that will prevent users from logging in to computers in 2109, the A&A Campus Computing Site, during that time. If they run into unexpected problems this downtime may run slightly longer. This outage will not affect any of the College-owned or student-owned computers, such as the 3rd floor studios and first floor labs, nor will it affect computers across the street in the Duderstadt Center; this only affects the computers in Room 2109.
