Additionally ALL of our Linux computers that are located in the CS labs (masters1 through masters4 & ugrad1 through ugrad12) will also be unavailable as well during that time due to the ACM Programming Contest.

- We have to take down the lab systems late that Friday afternoon. At the end of the ACM contest that Saturday night, the coordinators of the contest will be turning our lab computer systems back on. Most should boot normally. But, if some do not, just trying using an alternate one in the lab. (And remember, our compute servers, referenced above, will continue to be available remotely.) We'll be back onsite the Monday afterwards and can check on any systems that didn't boot normally.
- NOTE: The printers in MH 122 and MH 316/322 will remain online, but, please pick up your printouts outside of the contest hours.
