2021 - 2022 COM Student Handbook

68 Nova Southeastern University Student Handbook Students and faculty and staff members have access to scanners, printers, digital cameras, video cameras, and other technology tools. Wireless laptops are available for use in the library, HPD study rooms, and several regional campuses. Color printers and printing stations located in high traffic areas for “on-the-go printing” are also available. The labs are equipped with pay-for-print stations that are accessed via student identification cards, as well. Office of Student Media The Office of Student Media engages students by providing high-quality programs, including live radio, an entertaining lineup of original television shows, and investigative news stories. The office oversees the publication of The Current , NSU’s student run weekly newspaper; Radio X , the student-operated live radio station; and Sharks United Television (SUTV) , the student-operated campus TV station, and the new student-run photography department. In addition, Student Media annually hosts NSU’s Media Mash programming and the 72-Hour Film Competition. The office also supports the promotion of all campus events and programs to inform students about activities at the university. Military Affairs Veterans Resource Center The Military Affairs Veterans Resource Center (VRC) was developed to provide a centralized location for resources and services specifically designed for our veteran, ROTC, and military-affiliated students. The mission of the VRC is multifaceted and includes the facilitation of academic success, transitional assistance, supporting university and community engagement, providing professional development opportunities, and ultimately graduation and career attainment. Located in the Carl DeSantis Building, the VRC provides students with a home away from home, with lounge space, study areas, conference room, refrigerator, microwave, and a computer lab. It is also the host of the Student Veterans of America (SVA) veteran student group Freedom Sharks. Additional information can be found online at nova.edu/veterans . NSU Military Affairs also collaborates with the Veterans Access Clinic, which provides veterans and their immediate family members priority access to NSU’s health care clinics. SharkPrint NSU provides students with laser printing at libraries, computer laboratories, and on regional campuses. The print release stations, either stand alone or embedded, are located in various locations around each campus and control the process. Each registered NSU student (both full-time and part-time) receives a credit of $75.00 per fiscal year (July 1 through June 30) on his or her MyNSU Print account. The student also can use his or her funds for making copies at the photocopy machines. Unused credits cannot be carried over to the following year. The MyNSU Print credits feed directly from the NSU Banner Administrative system. The public does not receive any print or copy credits. Revalue stations are available for the public and for NSU students to add value to their SharkCards.
