Narrative
We
have observed an increase in the number of requests for MacBook laptops on both the Boca and Jupiter campuses.
At present the Jupiter campus is lacking sufficient numbers of Mac laptops with only two available for checkout. We would like to replace the two MacBooks as they are aging, and add five MacBooks for the Jupiter Camus Library. In addition, we would like to purchase seven cooling pads to update portable computing offerings for our students.
We also propose replacing seven of the ageing MacBooks for the
Boca campus library and adding seven more MacBooks for a total of fourteen to expand our mobile laptop offerings. The PC and Macbooks are heavily utilized during the school week and this would add to the number of options we give our students.
This proposal would cover all 21 new Macboks requested for both the Jupiter and Boca campuses. Each
MacBook will also have a power adapter to be checked out with the new MacBooks.
