Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does the Bloedorn AV Study Center have the equipment for showing PowerPoint presentations? What do you call the equipment that projects?
A: Yes, we do! The equipment is called an LCD projector. It displays the image from your computer screen so that everyone in the room can see it. You will need to make reservations for it in advance by calling us at 994-2856.

Q: I think I left my diskette in the Computer Lab. Would you have it?
A: Most likely! We have a Lost-and-Found diskette holder in the AV office. Diskettes are held for a month once we receive them.

Q: Does the AV Study Center have a scanner I can use?
A: No.

Q: Why isn't Microsoft Office available in the carrel PC's?
A: We load medical software in the carrel PC's. Much of it is required for the curriculum of the School of Medicine and Health Sciences, and of the School of Public Health and Health Services. Students must be provided constant access to these programs, and the presence of MS Office would hinder that access.
