Students: Need help with your computer?

Students, if you need help getting your computer connected, removing viruses, or using wireless, bring your computer to a ConnectHope Troubleshooting Fair. A technician will sit down with you and work through the problem (free of charge!). All Fairs are held in the CIT Office, located in Durfee Hall near the President's House:

Mondays = 1:30 pm - 4:00 pm
Wednesdays = 1:30 pm - 4:00 pm
Fridays = 1:30 pm - 4:00 pm

If you use a laptop, all you need to bring is the computer and power supply. If you use a desktop, just bring the tower (CPU). Note that you are required to stay with your PC while it's being worked on.

If you need more immediate assistance or help with things like reinstalling Windows or repairing hardware, we've negotiated reduced rates for Hope students/faculty/staff at several local computer repair shops. For more information and examples of the discounts, look here.

Senior email account deletions

Seniors:

As you work through the many details associated with your final semester, please keep in mind that your Hope College e-mail account will be deleted approximately 5 months after you graduate (roughly October 1). A reminder notice with the exact date will be sent several weeks prior.

Because you may be using your Hope account to correspond with many different groups, now is the time to think about the transition to a different address. This is especially important as you prepare and distribute resumes.

For more details, including links to services offering free e-mail accounts, please see: http://www.hope.edu/cit/tips/grad

Internet upgrade

The Hope College connection to the Internet is shared among the campus's 4000 users. In an effort to maintain it as a viable and cost-effective resource, CIT is constantly evaluating both its performance and configuration. Due to steadily increasing demand, today the capacity of that connection was increased by 66%, from 18Mbps to 30Mbps. The upgrade will provide a boost in performance and work to ensure its continued value to the campus.

Store more in your 1HOPE account

Every student and employee can now save over 4GB of messages and attachments in 1HOPE (the previous limit was 2GB). Given that the average email is about 20KB in size, that means you can keep over 200,000 messages!

To see how much space you're using, scroll to the bottom of any 1HOPE screen and look for the line that starts with: You are currently using...
