Student Computer Support: The Student Technician Assistance Program (STAP) provides computing assistance to students. STAP members are Student Employment Program employees who assist or advise students in their Campus network setup and troubleshooting or repair of personal computing equipment. The STAP office is located in room 009 of the Weir Academic building. Hours of operation are nominally 12:00 noon to 5:00 p.m. Monday through Friday but will vary due to class commitments. Requests for assistance may be made by calling 792-7333.
Computer Lab: An extended-hours Computer Lab is available to all students on the ground floor of Dickey Hall.

Jenzabar: Jenzabar is Schreiner's online course management system. Teachers may use Jenzabar (J.com) to supplement traditional class work, allowing registered students to access their personal course calendar, course syllabi, handouts, a course-related discussion list, a course chat room, a Jenzabar e-mail address (in addition to the Schreiner.edu accounts) and other tools as the instructor deems helpful. Via Jenzabar, students can also check Campus Announcements for updates on local news and events. Jenzabar is paired with "campus web", a portal giving students password-protected access to their registration information, grades and similar information.
Networking: Wireless or Ethernet network interface cards are available to students from the University for each semester. With wireless network cards, students are able to access the Internet from remote locations all over campus--with no wires or cables. Students can sit in the "quad" with their laptops and check e-mail, complete on-line course assignments, and conduct research on the web. Wireless cards are available for lease from the Tech Team, located in the Logan Library Annex. See the technology website for further information.
