Information Technology Ohio Wesleyan has taken numerous steps over the last few years to stay current in the explosive and ever-evolving use of technology. These steps have included:

• the installation of a fiber-optic (Ethernet) infrastructure to support an integrated computer network in academic and administrative offices, all 26 residence halls and small living units, and campus computer labs. Every residence hall room and classroom has network connections to access the Internet.
• the implementation of a four-year consortial effort to enhance and strengthen foreign language teaching and learning through information technology.
• the implementation o f a five-college consortia library effort, which included combining automated library systems and the electronic sharing of library collections.
• the installation of state-of-the-art Linux/Apache enterprise servers to run OWU's electronic mail and Web operations.

And fine arts students have continuous access to high-end Power Macintosh G4 workstations, scanners, and printers in the newly renovated Edgar Hall.
