Don't forget these items when you move to BC

1. Your computer (see the minimum requirements for campus computers)
   - Read important tips to get started with your computer at BC.
2. Lock for your laptop (protect your investment!)
3. UL-approved fire and surge protector strip (required by BC's Offices of Fire & Safety and Residential Life)
   
4. Coaxial cable for your TV
5. Backup your important files. To make sure you don't lose important files if your computer stops working, you should back up your computer on a regular basis. The easiest way to do this is to use an online service (search for: “online backup services”) that will do it automatically for you. Learn about other backup options at BC.
6. Prepare to print. Printers are available for purchase through the BC Bookstore or your favorite retailer. You can also print to laser printers in the Campus Technology Resource Center (CTRC) from anywhere on campus. You are credited 500 free pages to print per semester. Learn more about printing at BC.
7. If you want a land line: Corded touch-tone phone (cordless phone users report interference on campus)
8. Ethernet cable (in case you have an issue with wireless connectivity)
