OMPUTERS HERE, THERE, EVERYWHERE • Lara Roberts • Computers are invading the University of Georgia! These days just about every- thing can be done on a com- puter and as a result, every- where you look you will find some sort of computer. For some time now many Jour- nalism courses have been taught on computers, but now more and more depart- ments are turning to the computer for instruction. Both Freshman English and Freshman Math classes are taught on some sort of com- puter, as well as many other courses. Even courses that aren ' t taught on computers somehow interact with them. For example, many Physics classes have practice tests you can do on the computer to prepare for the normal ex- ams. But the biggest use of computers, outside of class, is for writing those infamous term papers. Typewriters are out and Word Processors are Intosh Plus. These are very popular on campus and can be found in the library, both the Journalism and Business schools, and Aderhold as well as many other places on campus. These have become so popular that you will al- most always encounter a wait in the library to use one. Many dorms are also being equipped with some sort of computers for the easy access of students. Creswell, Og- lethorp, Myers, Payne, and Russell all have IBM termi- nals, and other dorms are awaiting them. In addition, many students are investing in personal computers for themselves. What ' s the advantage of using computers you ask? Professor Keith Johnson, who teaches Copy Writing on computers, says it ' s better for the student because they learn computer skills along with writing. It ' s also an ad- vantage to the teacher be- cause they no longer have to decipher student ' s handwrit- ing. Beth Zgutowicz, who takes Freshman math tests on a computer, says the one disadvantage is that you don ' t get partical credit when you take your tests on computers. I wasn ' t expect- ing this when I came to col- lege, but it ' s fairly easy and I ' m getting used to it. The lines in the Computer Lab to take these tests are unreal, just as the lines for using a computer at the li- brary are. Yes, computers are everywhere, but there just aren ' t enough of them. Look- ing back though, you might wonder, How did I get by without one? sa» as ; aaa g«gsi Mfei

Today ' s advertising industry is on comput- ers and it ' s better for students to learn the skills the way they ' re expected to know them. — Professor Keith Johnson Hi
