4.5 COMPUTER LAB USAGES
Home > About Uni > School Policies > Student Handbook > 4.5
n Standards of Behavior Students who use the computer labs are expected to maintain acceptable standards of classroom decorum. Any other use, including playing music or running software not included by the system staff, will be considered cause for disciplinary action and possible loss of computer privileges. Students .plan files are public documents accessible to minors, so students cannot include offensive language in their introductory message. Teachers may reserve the computer labs for class use by sending email to the Technology Director at gregs@uiuc.edu. The labs are run on a first-come, first-served basis. A teacher who has reserved the lab may decide whether or not to allow other students to use available terminals.

4. Other recreational uses.
