As college graduates will soon discover when looking for jobs, a main interview question may be Do You Compute? Business and computer information students in the four-year degree program will have access to six different types of computer systems, according to Bill Ford, head operator for the NSU Computer Cen- ter. This is good, Ford said, because when you go to work for a company all they are going to do is teach you the basics. You ' re more valuable to a company if your education in computers is more diversified. Whereas most institutions offer a single type of machine, the Northwestern Computer Center has a diverse amount of equipment to work with. We are trying to utilize more equipment, Ford emphasized. When Dr. Otis Cox, director of institutional re- search, took over the Center three years ago, there was one computer, 10 student terminals, one stu- dent printer and one administration terminal. Today the Center boasts of three main computers, approximately 70 terminals, 60 microcomputers, and 20 printers. Ford said that plans to buy a fourth computer and cluster three machines into a super network will be realized by mid-1986. With so many different systems to offer, the Com- puter Center is keeping majors in computer informa- tion systems, accounting, business and journalism ahead in the computer game .
