Tóm tắt

Swarthmore College is a small liberal-arts college, located in southeast Pennsylvania. The attitude of the administration towards the computer until must recently was strictly hands-off. If you walked into an office and said, "How about putting something on the computer?,', they would get up and walk out, or they didn't hear so well that day, or something like that. At present, we are doing a lot of administrative work on the computer, mainly because the vice-president put out a letter that said, "Ose the computer." That was all there was to it. We are starting to bring in the general ledger and accounting system for the business office, the alumni mailing llst, which is about 22,000 names, and probably next month we'll do our first mailing, and numerJus other small Jobs which fell our lot because Miss SO-AND-S9 who's been with the college for fifty years finally retired and nobody knows how to do the work she was doing. We print things like payroll labels, which they used to print by hand once a week on the time cards-about a three-hour job that we do now in about thirty seconds. Other things are vacation and sick leave, which is a monstrous problem, mainly because nobody else can figure it out, or wants to be in charge of finding the sick leave every month. They blame it on the computer if it's wrong. © 1972 ACM.
