The security of your keys is important for everyone’s safety. It is imperative that any loss of keys be reported immediately to the Main Office. You are requested to exercise the utmost care in the use of your keys. Under no circumstances should you lend your keys to your students or visitors. 

Mailboxes

Each faculty member is assigned a mailbox located in Kearney Hall 202. U.S. mail is delivered directly to the Printing and Mailing Center where it is sorted and distributed to the remainder of campus. Campus mail arrives once daily at approximately 0900. U.P.S., FedEx, and other freight carriers deliver directly to Kearney Hall 101 throughout the course of the day. Please check your mailbox regularly for mail, package notifications, returned homework, school circulars, and other information.

All packages are received in Kearney Hall 101. They will remain in the main office until you pick them up. Office hours are 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. (closed from Noon-1 p.m. daily), Monday through Friday.

Be sure that all packages and correspondence are addressed properly. The correct address for all mailing or shipping to CCE is the following:

<YOUR NAME>
School of Civil and Construction Engineering
Kearney Hall 101
Oregon State University
Corvallis, OR 97331 

Telephones

Long Distance Calls

An authorization code is required to make long distance telephone calls. The authorization code is unique and is intended for use only by the person to whom it is assigned.

Authorization codes must be kept secure and not given to other persons. Codes must not be used for personal calls or purposes other than those intended.

Fax Machine

A fax machine (541-737-3052) is available for work-related purposes. Long distance numbers require an authorization code. The fax machine is located in Kearney Hall 101. Please see the Main Office staff for assistance.

Copies/Scanning/Office Supplies

The School provides a copier and document scanner, intended for research or teaching purposes, in Kearney Hall 101 and Owen Hall 200. Anyone desiring to make personal copies will need to utilize resources available on the main floor of the Valley Library. Maintaining the cleanliness and organization of the copy room is important; please do your part.

Office supplies are located in Kearney Hall 101 and are for the use of faculty and staff members only. Please do not direct students to the office for supplies.

Computer Use

Computer labs are available in most engineering buildings. They require an engineering account to log in. These computers maintain software for word processing, spreadsheet, and Internet connectivity applications. Options are available for remotely accessing research and other database or modeling software.

Do not copy ANY software onto the school’s computer hard disks without approval from the School Head and the Network Administrator. Software licensing and disk space availability are two issues that must be considered. The installation of your own personal copies of software on the School’s machines without permission exposes the School to an unacceptable potential liability and therefore cannot be allowed. Please ask permission for the installation and use of your personal software if it is important to your research or course work. Also, please do not copy any software from the School’s computers without permission. This action, again, violates software licensing agreements.

If you have any general questions about using University computers, please contact Paul Montagne in Owen 236 (541-737-3319), or e-mail support@engr.orst.edu for assistance.

Computer Use Policy

All use of OSU computer systems must conform to the University’s Policy on Acceptable Use of University Computing Facilities.

OSU computer systems must not be used for any illegal activity, or for storage or distribution of copyrighted material (e.g., music, videos, e-books, etc.).
