Student Government Association’s Administrative and Information Services Committee moved to make students’ time on campus a little bit easier this week, as they introduced a resolution that would place a printer on the first floor of the Plaster Student Union.

Students currently have access to a small computer lab on the second floor, but are unable to print from within the student union. On September 20, 2011, SGA approved Resolution GB Fall 2011-01, which asks that a printer set aside by Computer Services be relocated to the Plaster Student Union and set up for student use. The printer will allow students to print from computers located on the first floor of the PSU.

The initial cost of installing the printer will be approximately $150.00, with an additional $5.00 a month for operating expenses. This funding will come from the Student Organization Funding Allocation Council.

Printing will operate at the same rate as it currently does in other computer labs on campus, withdrawing .08 cents per page from a student’s BearPrint account. With the printer already available on campus, SGA estimates that the printer will be installed within the next two weeks.
