The Chemistry Department has established the following cost recovery scheme:
- Charges for building computers: As of January 2004, the charge for building a PC
from parts will be $100.
- Printing charges:
The Department charges for pages printed on the central printers
in the Computer Labs and Front Office.
The charges are as follows:
- color printer: $0.15 per page
- b/w printers: $0.05 per page
These charges may be adjusted up or down to represent the "real" cost of
consumables (toner, color wax, maintenance kits) as much as possible, and
they will hopefully lead to more thoughtful use of the printers by students.
- Virus-related charges:
$25 per computer if you request that we install/update your virus
definition software and perform a general security check.
In addition, the following fee applies:
- Up to $250 per computer that becomes compromised because of lacking or
outdated virus definition software or other actions or configurations
that are against our
Security Policy and lead to a compromise, whether the computer is
owned by a research group or an individual. This fee can be appealed
to the Computer Committee.
(effective as of March 15, 2002; announced in
COMPNEWS 39)
