Funding and awards

³Ô¹Ï±¬ÁÏ College offers several opportunities for students to receive grants in support of research, creative projects, and travel to present at conferences or juried exhibitions. Student opportunity funds are typically $200-$500 and may be used to defray the cost of research materials and supplies, for travel to a research site critical to the project's completion, for preparing project results for publication or display, or for purchasing materials needed for a creative project. Travel to present awards are typically $500-$700 and are used to support student travel to present research or creative projects at a conference or a professional meeting; student must apply at least three weeks before the conference.

SEE-Beyond Awards invite students to explore new techniques, technologies, or modes of inquiry or expression; to apply their academic-year learning to real-world challenges; and to clarify the interrelationship between their educational and post-baccalaureate goals. Awards may be used to support field or laboratory research, internships, artistic residencies, workshops, apprenticeships, or productions.

Thorne family awards are summer funded experiential learning opportunities for first-generation college students.

The Office of Academic Advising provides support to ³Ô¹Ï±¬ÁÏ students seeking national undergraduate and post-graduate merit scholarships, fellowships, and grants.

 

The MCS Linux Lab - Harder Hall 207

 

Note:  To change password or perform other tasks within Linux, or to learn more about the system, follow the link to the Linux Lab HomePage at the right.  The page includes a "cloud" of topics.  Use your mouse to rotate the cloud to the desired topic (like "password") and click on it.


The lab was constructed during the summer of 2005 and includes 20 Linux workstations along with an instructor's machine connected to an overhead projector. All workstations are connected to the Linux servers and to the campus network. Students can access their personal folders on Datastor.

The lab machines require a valid username and password to log on. These are not the same as the campus or e-mail names and passwords - since the Linux servers form a separate network (although attached to the campus net) and require a different set of usernames and passwords. This information is distributed by instructors or by the Linux Lab administrator, Lisa Schermerhorn (lscherme@skidmore.edu) in HH208.

To acquire an account, students must sign the user agreement (see the sidebar at the right). Download it, sign it, and return to your instructor or to Lisa.
