FAQ
Are students required to have a personal computer?
You will definitely need a personal computer, especially this year. In general, any modern Mac or PC will suffice, but computer requirements may vary depending on the specific academic program you are entering. Check with your academic advisor to determine if a specific computer platform is required.
Chromebooks, iPads or Android tablets will not suffice for many academic tasks.
How can I change my BadgerWeb password?
Changing your BadgerWeb password periodically is a good idea.
Remember that the BadgerWeb password [for current SHC students, faculty, and staff] is the same password for your email, library resource off-campus access, and for logging in to any SHC computer while on-campus. When you change your password, it will affect all of these different resources; your username will not change.
If you are a prospective or accepted student for the coming academic year, please contact the HelpDesk (helpdesk@shc.edu or 251.380.2276) for further assistance.
Can IT fix my laptop or desktop?
Due to liability issues, the Office of Information Technology cannot repair student owned computers. We will be happy to help you with connectivity issues and viruses and refer you to an appropriate technician if further repairs are needed.

What if I don't have my own computer?
