Keep Calm and Visit CALL
The CALL facility (CLE A025), in my opinion, is one of the most underrated areas on UVic’s campus. This beautiful space offers a wide range of benefits, such as:
- adjustable height stations (allowing you to stand at either a Mac or PC workstation!)
- a mix of 25 new Apple and Windows computers with dual monitors
- webcams on EACH computer (for Zoom, Teams & Skype)
- optical media drives (Macs)
- USB headsets with microphones for loan
- 2 collaborative conference tables (6 seats), each with large screen HD monitors & wireless Windows computers
- 2 small rolling whiteboards
- 2 large rolling whiteboards
- open workstations for quiet study time
- open desks for studying
- outlets for charging laptops and peripherals
- video display projector to practice presentations
- drop-in access unless booked for a class (same as other computing rooms in Clearihue)
On top of it all, CALL is also a Computer Help Desk satellite location for assistance!
This area is never too crowded and the perfect place to get your studying done! If you haven’t paid this place a visit, it should definitely be your next on-campus destination.
More information about the CALL facility can be found on the link below (another OAC blog about UVic I highly recommend checking out, written by UVic’s Greg Fanning)!
