CRIME : cameras bring new ho
Continued from page 1
Incidents such as this, the loss
of a printer and overhead pro
jector from Roger Rook, and a
burglary from the Streeter
Annex have caused administra
tors to consider security
options other than simply leav
ing doors locked.
“We are taking security
as an issue in all of
our build
ings,” said Ashbaugh “This is
just another example of why we
need it.”
The relatively unrestricted
access to computer equipment
allowed the theft of two LCD
monitors from the then-recently
completed Streeter Annex last
spring.
As a
result, eight new
security cameras
were
recently
installed in the
computer science
resource center
located in the
annex.
The 7,000-
s q u a r e - f o o t
annex to Streeter
Hall
provides
classroom space
for computer sci
ence
classes
along with a
resource room
and work areas
for students.
While
the
computer lab located in
Streeter Hall is open
to the student
body, computers
in the Streeter
Annex
are
essentially for
the use of com
puter science
students.
The comput
ers themselves
have no perma
nent hard drives
installed; comput
er science students
are assigned individ
ual interchangeable
hard drives through
which to
complete
assignments.
Rather than college staff
monitoring the use of com
puters like in the Streeter Hall
computer lab, computers in the
annex are located in an open,
commons-type area located
near both entrance and exit.
“The monitors are locked

said Computer Science Chair
Steffen Moller “but someone
just came in with a pair of wire
in the wa
business,”
“and not net
that we wanted
intent is that acce

is extremely limits
used strictly to

The Associated Student
Government currently offers
two ways of helping students
with their textbook buying trou
bles. Through ASQ students can
partake in the Book Exchange or
apply for book grants.
“People can mark their own
prices,” said Nick Verducci, the
ASG officer of campus activi
ties, of the Book Exchange. “So
they can set it higher than what
they could get back at the book
store, but at a reasonable price,
which would be cheaper than
buying it [used] at the book
store.”
In recent years, ASG has
dropped the price from $2 per
book to $2 per form. A student
can put up for sale eight books
perform.
“[The grants] are available to
any college student that is
attending
full-time,”
said
Verducci, “[It’s] basically for
students with low income, that
have kids [or] just need extra
money [for books].”
While
the
Book
Exchange is available to
anyone on campus
who wishes to
make
some
money
off of old
textbooks
or to buy
them
for
“reasonable”
prices,
the
book
grants
involve
an
application
process,
“[To apply for
the book grants,]
you ... need an edu- ,
cation plan, and if /
you’re receiving
I
financial
aid,
[we] need a
copy of the
grants or the
loans you’re get-
ting, class schedule, transcripts
.., and a letter saying why you
need the grant,” said
Verducci.
The
grant
comes in the
form of credit at
the
CCC
Bookstore, and is
only available for
spending there.
The cap for
the amount
of money
you can get
for books
is “most
likely”
about
$150, said Verducci. The avail
ability of the grants is uncertain,
being that more money might be
allotted to the grant fund at a
later date.
Alternately, any money a stu
dent makes from the Book
Exchange is theirs to keep,
granting that he or she remem
bers to pick up the money from
the ASG office.
The Exchange will take place
in the new ASG offices, located
where the Skyl
Room used to be,
cafeteria. It is ad
two weeks of each
as finals week.

Continued from Page 1
It is never too late to pick up
a card. Each year, a few chil
dren
are
left unpicked.
Fortunately, the ASG supplies
these children with gifts, but
donations are always appreciat
ed to keep these costs down.
After die gifts are received at
the ASG office, they are
wrapped and the families are
called to pick up the packages.
All gifts must be picked up by
the Dec. 10, and those left at the
office are donated to another
charity.
For information about donat
ing to the Giving Tree, stop by
the ASG office or call ext. 5345.
