2017-Spring 24Hrs Opening of Tang Shiu Kin Comp. Lab
In view of the heavy demand of computers in the ITSC Computer Barns, Tang Shiu Kin Comp. Lab. (1/F barn) will be operating 24 hours (7 days a week and includes public holidays) for the period starting on :
6 Mar 2017 to 19 May 2017 (inclusive ).
With 24 hrs opening of Tang Shiu Kin Comp. Lab., students are reminded to take good care of the equipment, and refrain from eating and drinking in the barn. Please also take note of the Maintenance Window (see attached notes), when some of the services may not be available within the period.
As computers in Barns are in high demand, reserving seats with belongings is strictly prohibited. Students are also reminded not to take up more than one computer simultaneously during the busy hours. Student Consultants may act on behalf of ITSC to release the computer as needed for other users and disciplinary actions may be taken on inconsiderate students.
We hope the above arrangements will be helpful to you and hope you’ll enjoy the facilities provided in the Computer Barns. As always, please feel free to drop us an email at any time of your comments or suggestions to our ITSC Suggestions & Complaints Box – CCLISTEN.
Thank you for your attention.
