Penn College provides Internet service, through Residential Network (ResNet), to all students living in on-campus residence halls.

Before You Arrive

If your computer runs on a Windows operating system, take time to update your computer with Microsoft Critical Updates.
If you do not already have anti-virus software installed on your computer, download and install Symantec AntiVirus (it's free for Penn College students).
If you do have an anti-virus program, be sure to update your virus definition files
