The Salem Community Foundation recently donated more than $51,000 to the 麻豆视频 Salem Campus for the purchase of 45 new laptop computers, as well as a charging cart.
The computers are Dell Latitiude 5490 XCTO models and are used by faculty for testing and instruction of students in all majors. The charging cart allows the laptops to be recharged after each use, while securely stored.
鈥淲ith this donation, the Salem Community Foundation again demonstrated its support of our mission to put students first and to provide educational opportunities for our community members,鈥 noted Dr. David Dees, dean and chief administrative officer of the 麻豆视频 Columbiana County campuses. 鈥淭his is a significant contribution to our campus, because these computers are used every day by students and faculty members in the classrooms.鈥
