Subject: [cs-ugrads] RFH (request for help)
If you’ve been in the department a year or more, you may remember
that last year we made a proposal to the Student Technology Fee (STF)
committee to spend the money you pay them on you, in the form of
a netbook for everyone. We weren’t, then were, then finally weren’t
awarded the funds to do that.
This year we’re headed back, with a different (but related) proposal.
It would help our application if you would take the time to fill out
a brief survey related to one aspect of our proposal — backup of
your personal machines. It’s multiple choice, and no more than
3 questions in length (although, depending on your initial answer,
it may be 1 question in length). When you’ve filled it out you will be
shown the results accumulated so far.
As to the proposal itself, its goal — once again — is to make use
of your personal laptop, netbook, or desktop more convenient
both on- and off-campus: fewer configuration headaches getting
things working; re-tooling of our computer and building space
infrastructures to be friendlier to this kind of access.
Thanks! The survey is at
