Remote Access to Software Applications - Macintosh to Windows
We reduced the number of computers physically accessible in labs and public computing spaces to better protect the health and well-being of the Hamilton Community. These spaces are reduced by a minimum of 50%. The remaining resources will be made available through a remote connection to allow for continued use of the applications on those machines, both on and off campus.
