In addition to university licensed software and Animal Science oriented software, computers in the Kildee Laboratories have several other titles. Several Adobe software titles are included (Photoshop, PageMaker, Illustrator and Acrobat) as well as StarOffice.  X-Windows software is available to access ISUA or other computer systems with a graphical user interface for programs like SAS. WebCT can be accessed using Internet Explorer from servers at ITS.  Students that login using their NetID and password will have a personal network file space mapped to the "My Documents" folder on the desktop. Files saved in the "My Documents" folder will be available at any other computer in the lab or any other computer lab similarly configured across campus. Students that login using their NetID and password can print to the laser printers located in the room or those in Durham. Print charges are $.005/page for B&W printers and $.05/page for the color printer. Students may elect to pay for printing from the $5/semester printing grant from CAC or charge printing to their university bill (U-bill).
