Terms of service for all support desks

1. Technical Support

• Student employees are not licensed technicians and are not allowed to open the box to your personal computer.
• If you bring your computer to the Student or laptop Helpdesk, a student employee or staff will look at it. By granting this employee such permission, you are waiving any and all liability resulting from something unexpected occurring, like loss or corruption of data. During this time you must also stay and watch what the student employee or staff is doing to your machine.
• Please remember that Student Helpdesk employees cannot install hardware, software, and/or operating systems for you, even if you waive the liability.

2. Network Support

• If there is trouble with the network in your dorm room the Student Helpdesk offers first-level troubleshooting over the phone.
• If troubleshooting does not help two employees from the Student Helpdesk will visit your room to check the network jack. If, at that time, it is determined that the network jack is not working properly, they will then put in a ticket detailing the situation and a network specialist will fix the problem in the order that it was received.

3. Network Drives

• Your student account has a 100MB limit for files that can be placed on your desktop. If you go over this limit you will be unable to access your profile. In the event that this happens, we (ITS Staff) must then access your account and remove files. Music files, video files, large applications and games should not be saved here and may be deleted.
• "Y" Drives (your home drives) are to be used for academic purposes only. Use of this drive for storage of MP3 files, software installs (i.e. setup.exe), large applications and games is prohi
