Student Internet Access
New students are required to obtain an account on the student unix computer
DANA. DANA gives NAU students, who agree to abide by proper ethical standards,
access to the internet including electronic mail, the Cline library on-line
catalogue, world wide web home pages (http), and usenet news.
Accessing these sort of Internet services requires establishing an
electronic identity (essentially an electronic mail address). This
can be done by acquiring a computer
account on the DANA machine. Any currently enrolled student, who
is willing to use these resources responsibly, is permitted an account
on the DANA machine.
If you are an Arizona Resident, NAU has several
local modem pools throughout the state.
If these modem numbers are not local to your area,
you should select a local internet service provider (ISP)
to avoid long distance phone charges.
You are responsible for paying any phone charges (long distance and local)
and ISP fees incurred as a result of taking this web course.
Group Communication
Group work is an important part of PL501, "Communities and Public Planning".
