A queue management system allows students to get in line remotely (from your phone or computer), check status, and be notified via SMS or mobile app when a representative is ready to provide service either physically or remotely. This means 100% disbursement of students from a lobby. Queue management system can provide the following student journey:

  • Students get in line from their phone or computer
  • Students are told how long their wait is and their place in-line
  • Students arrive β€œjust-in-time” (no students waiting in your lobby)
  • No More Lines, No Busy Lobby, No Contagion

WiFi on Campus

Library WiFi upgrade

91ΑΤΖζ IT is upgrading WiFi at MLK Library with the latest WiFi 6 hardware, providing consistent high-speed WiFi for students and faculty for Fall 2021. This updated connection will greatly improve user experience and enable students to attend online or hybrid classes from the library. WiFi 6 will also relieve network congestion, reducing dead spots and drops when students move around the library with their laptops or mobile devices. 

Outdoor WiFi

Thanks to the support of President Papazian, we’ve put in place an initiative to blanket the majority of campus’ outdoor spaces with WiFi 6 connectivity by Fall 2021. With these upgrades, new areas are opened up for students to study and work while staying safely distanced from others and for more instructors to have the option to teach outside. Ensuring that our university has a reliable, fast, campus-wide network is a foundational step in our long-term strategy for achieving the vision of Transformation 2030.
