REMOTE LOCATION REMINDERS 

#1: RUN THE WIZARD

You should click the link below to make sure the computer you will be using has all of the appropriate installations to run the remote location software. If you use a different computer for each session, you will need to come in a few minutes early to run this each time. If you use the same computer, you only need to run it once.

#2: CHECK SOUND COMPONENTS

If you are using a home computer, make sure your volume works or you have speakers. If you are using a campus computer, please find a pair of headsets to use. If you cannot hear Francois, you will not be able to understand what is happening during the Remote Session.
