Students, faculty and staff can bring their laptop computers to the second floor of the Miller Learning Center from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Oct. 22 for free security assistance at the fall 2008 Computer Health and Security Fair.
The security checkups, sponsored by the Enterprise Information Technology Systems and Telecommunication, Electronic and Computer Services, include virus scans and software updates, spyware removal and more. Requests are filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
