Re: Size and Growth
Hi Ann--
We have about 4,000 students (just under half of them are part-time
students) and the Writing Room is open 55 hours per week. From Computer
Services' perspective we are an "open student computer lab," and the
fifteen computers we have get quite a bit of use when we are not consulting.
