The BAS University Computer Lab will be renovated during the Summer 2014. As part of the renovation we will be replacing 40 old student computers in the open lab area – the computers being replaced are 7 years older and they are out of warranty. We are replacing the old computers with NUC devices. These new generation devices feature a solid-state hard drive, have a small footprint (leaving more work area for students) and they cost a fraction of comparable desktop computers. In addition, this proposal requests to replace the south lab assistant desk. The current desk is dirty, not very functional and it will not match the lab style after the lab renovation. Also, we are requesting to replace 50 chairs in the BAS S137E room. The current chairs are over 15 years old and are very dirty, have missing parts, broken corners and do not lift up/down anymore. The BAS Lab serves over 14,000 university wide students a year
