Landmark College is committed to providing a sophisticated
infrastructure to support
access to the technology utilized in teaching
and educating our students.
Wireless
Wireless access points allow students to use notebooks in most instructional, resource, and social areas. Students and faculty are able to take full advantage of technology in the classroom. Wireless access allows learning activities to naturally extend beyond the classroom, into the general campus environment.
Network
Landmark College maintains a Local Area Network in support of our Mission. This network provides tools for research, collaboration, and communication, as well as systems for supporting the day-to-day functioning of the College. Students and other users may access the Network using Windows 9x, Windows 2000, and Windows XP.
The key components of the network include: Netware File and Print services, Novell GroupWise for collaboration (such as email and calendars), and SBT PowerCampus — for maintaining academic data.
Network services run on a combination of Hewlett-Packard and Dell servers, on a fiber-optic backbone. The campus network is made up of Cisco FastEthernet switches, utilizing a layer-3 switch to interconnect the campus buildings.
College Internet service is provided by Adelphia Business Solutions, via a T1 line to Burlington, Vermont. The traffic is managed using an Allot NetEnforcer. Access into and out of Landmark College is controlled using a Cisco PIX firewall.
Computer Labs
There are several computer labs on campus. They provide access for students
when they do not have access to their notebook.
The Art Lab has sophisticated graphics programs,
which are used for art classes and other
learning-related activities. The Language
and Communications Lab is equipped with
Spanish language software.
Intranet Portal
Our intranet provides access to the various
web applications used by the College. This
includes WebCT courseware, bulletin boards,
and our in-house Internet Student Information
System (ISIS). Using the portal offers a
personalized view of campus information.
