This fall, we officially delineated two categories: Guaranteed Support
(networking, e-mail/Unix account, College Web applications, dial-up) and
Best Effort (hardware issues, OS problems, viruses, really everything
else). We dropped off flyers to each dorm room explaining the policy, and
when a student schedules an appointment they get an email explaining this.
Our support policy is online at
