MISL Computer Labs
The MISL computer labs are available for general student use, and use by Graduate School of Education classes. The lab is not available for general use when there are classes present. A schedule of classes using the lab is posted on the bulletin board outside the PC lab each month.
When an instructor needs to take advantage of equipment housed in one of the labs or the MISL classroom, they must reserve a space by calling lab staff at 503-725-4607. Since the labs get a great deal of use, it helps to reserve lab space well in advance.
Assistance in returning equipment, putting chairs and tables back in their normal places, enforcing our no food or drink policies, and policing the space you have been using is greatly appreciated.
