Hey there, Askastudent,<\/p>\n

I’m wondering if there are any power outlets available for laptop users during a lecture. Unfortunately, my laptop is incapable of enduring more than an hour without being plugged in.<\/p>\n

Thanks a bunch!
\nDemi<\/p>\n

Hi Demi (Moore?)<\/p>\n

In answer to your pressing technological question, I’m afraid I can only speak in vague terms. Depending on the lecture hall, you may be plug-less. Some courses might be held in large rooms where it’s possible to be hooked up to a plug, but depending where you sit, you might be screwed. I would recommend charging your laptop as much as possible, and bringing a notebook to take notes, just in case. Many people find a tape recorder handy to record important lectures for exam prep.<\/p>\n

Try and sit off to the side during the first day of class, before people get particular about where they sit. Best of luck and stop Twittering <\/a>during lecture!<\/p>\n
