Bethany’s computer facilities include two networked computer labs with high-speed Internet in the Nelson Science Center. The labs are open from 7 a.m. to 12 a.m., seven days a week. Use of one of the labs may be pre-empted by classes held in the lab. Both Nelson labs are equipped with laser printers. Students may use all lab resources free of charge. The labs open and close with the beginning and end of each term. If the college is closed the labs will be also.

Additional Computers
In addition to Nelson Computer Labs 128 and 129, other PCs are available in the Wallerstedt Library lobby area and the lower level of the Pihlblad Student Union.

Wireless Access
Wallerstedt Social Science Center, where many Bethany classes are held, is a wireless hotspot. Levin Room in the Union and Lindquist Hall(restricted access) in the library are wireless hotspots. Wireless hostpots are also available in the lobbies of Alma Swensson, Anna Marm, Gregory, and Warner Residence Halls.

Residence Halls
All student rooms in the residence halls and the Swede Suites are equipped with high-speed Internet connections. To access this connection you need a Network Interface Card (NIC) and a Cat5 ethernet cable that is 6ft or longer.  The NIC in your computer may not neccesarily be pre-configured or "turned on".

Email Accounts
Computer Services will assign students a user name and account, giving students access to the Bethany network and an email account. This account will be the college’s official and formal means of communication with students, and students are expected to check their Bethany account daily.
