Policy 3.22: Priority Use of Computer Resources
The Executive Director of Technology and Instructional Support Services has the authority in conjunction with other Vice Presidents and the system administrator to set priority usage of available prime computer resources. Reporting deadlines, registration days, payroll, end of year reporting, all other functions will be taken into consideration when a need arises for priority usage. Needs of users, what is realistically affordable, and a balance of services provided all will be taken into consideration. As part of the total institutional evaluation, there will be an evaluation of this policy.
Realizing that there will be down-time with any system, every effort will be made to insure they will be scheduled during low periods of usage. In the event that a major shut-down occurs, reciprocal arrangements will be made with sister institutions for use of their systems. Records should be kept by the system administrator to insure adequate profile of usage is available for evaluation purposes.
