LAPTOP COMPUTER CHECKOUT CONTRACT

The OC SSS Program has Laptops available
for checkout to members in good standing with our program. It is at the
discretion of the SSS staff to determine the standing of a student on a
case-by-case basis.
Computers are
checked out free of charge from the SSS Office for a period of 5 days.
Computers are checked back in to the SSS Office by 12 Noon on the fifth
day. If you cannot turn your computer in by the preset time, you must
call the SSS Offices at 335-6476.
______ All
laptops must be returned on or before the due date and cannot be checked
out again for a minimum of one day. This applies to all students in the
program including those within the same household. (This is to allow
other students to check out laptops.) Participants who check out
laptops for the use of others will lose their laptop loan privileges.
______ A hold
will be placed on your record if the laptop is not returned, and will
remain on your record until the laptop is returned or replaced. If a
laptop is returned late, you will lose the privilege of checking out a
laptop, or any other SSS equipment, for the rest of the semester.
Computers will not
be checked out over Christmas, Thanksgiving, Spring Break Holidays, or
between semester breaks. If a laptop is due to be returned on a school
holiday other than the previously mentioned, then the equipment must be
turned in the next working day. If the turn in date falls on a weekend,
the computer is due the next working day. Laptops may not be reserved
and are checked out on a first-come basis.
The student who
signs for the computer is responsible for lost, stolen, or damaged
accessories, parts, and software at all times. This does exclude every
day wear and tear, which is determined by the SSS Staff. The student
should be aware that he/she will be appropriately charged for any damage
done to a laptop that has been signed out by the student and a hold will
be put on their records. The laptop must be turned in to an SSS
Staff member not just placed on a desk or outside the offices. The
laptop will be subject to inspection upon check out and check in so
please allow 10-15 minutes for this process. It is also important to
remember the Acceptable Use Policy for computers signed by all
SSS students applies to the laptops as well. All, if any,
exceptions may only be approved by the Director. Any questions should
be referred to 335-6476.
