>The Bechtel Lecture Hall, Room 1-390, was recently renovated to accommodate
>distance learning. The new lectern now features a standard Dell
two-button PC
>mouse. However, working on Athena is a lot easier with a three-button
mouse.
>Please replace the two-button mouse with a three-button model.
>
>Despite the extensive renovations, the room still has very few network
jacks.
>I can find only a few on the lectern and two at the end of the first full
row
>of seats on the side by the lectern. However, these latter drops are not
>active. Since we routinely log on with a laptop during class, having these
>two drops turned on would be quite valuable. Right now. the network cable
>from the lectern just reaches my laptop, but the cable stretches across the
>lectern to the countertop, creating a potential hazard.
>
>If you are not the right people to receive this request, please let me know
>who should be informed.
