Computers and Internet
Iowa Lakes is fortunate to have a computer network on all
campuses of the college. All computers, which are Pentium or
higher speed, are connected to this network . All networked computer classrooms,
labs, and offices have direct Internet access.
Every student and college
employee is given a personal e-mail account and individual storage space
on the network. Internet access is available for Iowa Lakes students and staff.
If you experience
any difficulties with your e-mail account, please call the
Help Desk at the Estherville Campus, ext. 8383.

Iowa Lakes does not require students to purchase computers.
Computers are available for use in the Computer Lab and
Library at each Iowa Lakes campus location. There
are several classrooms designated for computer-based
instruction throughout the college. These classrooms are
also open for your use when class is not in session.
If
you experience any difficulties with the equipment while you are
