New Printers
Posted by Bonnie Lerner on Aug 21, 2009
As you may have noticed, there are new printers in the computer labs. You will access them the same way but one new feature is that the printers can print doublesided. Just select the 9040 duplex as your printer. You will be charged .15 for a double sides copy instead of .20 for 2 single sided ones.

Obama’s nominee for Supreme Court
Posted by Bonnie Lerner on May 26, 2009
President Obama on Tuesday nominated federal appellate Judge Sonia Sotomayor to the U.S. Supreme Court. She will replace retiring Justice David Souter.
If confirmed, Sotomayor, 54, would be the first Hispanic U.S. Supreme Court justice and the third woman to serve on the high court.
The nominee is not expected to have difficulty being confirmed in the Democratic-controlled Senate in time for the new court session in October. The president has said he hopes to have hearings in July, with the confirmation completed before Congress leaves for the summer.
