Agenda

Multiple logins in Math labs

Naji had concerns that students were monopolizing many computers in labs at one time and wondered if there was a technical method of limiting this activity. The consensus of the group was that there was no easy way to do this, although it had been tried in the past without success. For now this would have to be enforced through lab use policy until a better technical solution was available.
