This new labortory marks a significant upgrade to the departmental computing facilities. There a 20 new Pentium 4 PC's, a networked color inkjet and laser printer. In this new laboratory students can now log in to the campus network, as well as take advantage of chemistry specific software available in this lab. The new laboratory also has a professionally done portrait painting of Dr. Carrabine. The room can also be used for classes, with a PC, document camera, DVD projection system. The original John A. Carrabine Computer Laboratory was dedicated on Sunday, April 28, 1996 in the Bohannon Science Center. It housed 8 PC Computer systems and 2 networked printers.
The laboratory is normally open Monday-Thursday 8am-10pm, Friday 8am-5pm, Saturday 1-5pm, Sunday 1-10 pm. Special events or classes are occasionally scheduled for this space. Notice of reservations are normally posted on the door.
The Carrabine computer lab is used by chemistry students at all levels to analyze data, prepare reports, perform molecular modeling experiments and search the chemical literature using the internet. With continuing financial support through the John Carrabine Computer Endowment, the Carrabine Computer Lab stands as a legacy to Dr. Carrabine's contribution to the JCU Community.
