August 2009 Newsletter
Message from the Director
Welcome to the latest issue of the OASIS newsletter! The focus of our newsletters is to share information about OASIS and other technology resources available to you on campus. Since OASIS provides such a wide variety of services and resources, this issue is devoted to highlighting a few areas we think are of greatest interest and usefulness to you.
Technology Training
Do you want to design your own webpage, learn a new piece of software, or just get general technology training? Have we got great news for you! The OASIS Instructional Technologists are here to help. The instructors teach regular classes, and have open training hours every Mon-Thurs from 1-4pm. They take their cues directly from the College's user population with their motto: "We'll teach you anything you want to learn."
Applying for a Service
OASIS has created a FREE (like air, not like lunch) "Apply for Service" program. That means that you can come to us and we will consider all requests based on their merit. From webservices to application development. Any new service you would like. Send us your ideas.
Beasley Multimedia Resource Center
The Beasley Multimedia Resource Center (BMRC), located in the basement of Graham Memorial Hall, has the coolest cutting edge technological toys on campus. From HD video cameras to a sound booth to state of the art computers and software, you have everything you need to produce stunning multimedia.
Computing Specialists
If you forgot your password, your computer got attacked by a virus, or you accidentally spilled coffee on your keyboard... no worries, your OASIS Computing Specialists are here to help.
UNC Virtual Computing Lab Provides Remote Access to Research Computing Software
The UNC Virtual Computing Lab (VCL) provides free and convenient access to state of the art research computing resources. The VCL is an environment where people can access specific research software on an as-needed basis from their computer without installing anything
