<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Commons South reopened today! The space filled with students minutes after the yellow “Caution” tape came down.<\/p>\n
The new Commons South houses dozens and dozens of computer workstations. Commons South is also a center for group work, with eleven new and spacious group study rooms and five work areas featuring media:scape\u2122 furnishings that allow students to walk up, plug in their own laptops, and confer on group projects. Black-and-white, color, and wireless printing are all available in Commons South.<\/p>\n
With both Commons North and Commons South now open, all computing services are conveniently located along a north-south axis, clearly visible from the east end of the second floor galleria. On the north end of the axis are the OIT Help Desk (Net IDs & passwords, email, MYUTK), Computer Support (internet access, viruses & spyware) and Lab Services. Commons South hosts Desktop Support (computer and printing issues), the Studio (media production), and — as of 7 a.m. tomorrow (Wednesday) — equipment checkout.<\/p>\n
And . . . a hallway that bisects the line of service desks leads directly from Commons South into Starbucks!<\/p>\n
