Office space
Revision as of 00:23, 28 September 2012 by imported>Mjh
Due to a growing number of CS and ECE courses which require Linux usage, VTLUUG would like to obtain space in order to hold office hours several times per week to provide technical support and installation help, as well as small group hands-on tutorials that can not be effectively accomodated at our weekly meetings.
Desired features of the office space:
- CNS port available (preferably with a static IP available)
- Easy for people to find
- Exterior doors open to everyone on weekends
- After-hours access for officers, etc
- Behind bur-6509-1.vl703.cns.vt.edu so we can use our IP allocations
Locations explored for potential office space include:
- Whittemore Hall - has 100Mbps CNS ports but hardly any spare IPv4s. SEC and IEEE have offices on the 3rd floor. Exterior doors are locked after 10pm and on weekends to everyone except ECE students. Potentially hard to find for freshmen.
- Durham Hall - room 232 is marked "student society" on the floorplans but may not be used. This is approximately across the hall from our weekly meeting location. Exterior doors are also locked at night and on weekends except to ECE students.
- Squires Student Center - highest concentration of student organization offices, including WUVT and VTARA, so would be easier to get an office here. Building has enforced closing times (~12am?) but is open on weekends. After hours member access would only be possible if we are located in the media wing, which would be unlikely as it is all in use.
