The MCS department made some upgrades over the summer. The iMacs that were in Olin 326 have been replaced with a PC that runs the latest release of Ubuntu. The hardware change was made to compliment upcoming changes to the Computer Science major. The department also added a 3rd generation Threadripper with a 3970 X 32 Core 64 thread CPU. The server will be used for student faculty research and for projects in the afore mentioned new computer science curriculum. The new lab machines, server, and curriculum will expose students to the tools they need to be competitive in the job market.
