The
Laptop Program is part of Meredith
College's Technology Initiative
and is currently offered to all under-graduate degree seeking
students who are taking a full course load (12 hours or greater).
Meredith College will install a suite of Default
Software on each laptop prior to distribution. |
Rules
and regulations for the Laptop Program will be governed by the
procedures outlined in Meredith College's Laptop
Policy. Each student or a parent/guardian (if the student
is under 18 years of age) will sign a Program
Agreement that covers very specific rules and regulations
concerning the laptops. |
| As outlined in the Agreement -
upon graduation
or competition of a professional under-graduate program, such
as second degree, second major, or professional certificate, coupled
with a minimum of two full time completed semesters at
Meredith College, the laptop will become the property of the student. |

| Personal
Laptop Use |
If the student desires to
use their own laptop, IBM compatible or Macintosh,
either because they don't qualify for the program or prefer
to use their own equipment, Meredith College will configure
their personal laptop to access the Meredith Wireless community
or issue a special wireless card to be used while the student
is on the Meredith campus. |
Because the cost of the
technology initiative/laptop program is factored into the full-time
students tutition, it is highly recommended that the student
participate in the program. Software that is installed on a
Meredith Laptop can not be transfered to a students personal
laptop. |
Support
for personal laptops is limited to Meredith
network access issues. The help desk will provide the Meredith
wireless access connection configuration on a students personal
laptop. The student will be required to have proper id before
installation is performed. |
