Computers
Each Law Center employee receives one computer for their office and/or workspace. The Law Center has computers available for students and other patrons on the 1st floor of the Law Library. Students can use these computers to print documents to the Print Center.
The following software is available on these 1st floor library computers:
- Microsoft Office
- Google Chrome
- Adobe Acrobat Pro
- Student Print Center
Laptops
- Faculty Laptop Policy – It is at the discretion of each professor whether they will allow laptops during lectures. Faculty may ban laptops from classroom lectures entirely if they choose to do so.
- Student Laptop Technical Support – We provide basic technical support for most laptops running the current and previous 2 major versions of the Windows and Mac operating systems. Support is provided to you as our time and resources permit. We will do what we can to help but it is entirely at our discretion as to how much help we can provide.
- LSU Discounts for Hardware Purchasing – We do not endorse any specific model or brand of computer. However, several companies offer discounts to LSU students. If possible, be sure to purchase an extended warranty that will last your entire law school career. To take advantage of these programs, visit the Hardware Purchasing Discounts page on TigerWare.
- Backups – Make sure you back up the files on your computer using a cloud backup service. LSU provides faculty, staff, and students with Microsoft OneDrive space which is a good solution for cloud-based backups.
