Welcome to the Fuqua Technology Commons  

Not For Ourselves Alone
The Story of Elizabeth Cady Stanton
and
Susan B. Anthony

A film by Ken Burns

"Not For Ourselves Alone:  The Story of Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan B. Anthony" presents the history of women's suffrage in the United States through the dramatic, often turbulent friendship of Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Susan Anthony. Part 1 covers the years from their youth up to the establishment of the National Woman Suffrage Association in 1868. Part 2 spans the period from 1868 to the passage in 1919 of the 19th amendment to the Constitution which gave women the right to vote.

The Fuqua Technology Commons is the academic technology center for the Hampden-Sydney College campus.  Located on Floor 1 of the Bortz Library, the FTC is where students, faculty, and staff can gain assistance in the use of various hardware and software.  We loan video cameras, still cameras, digital voice recorders, Kindles, and other equipment.  We also maintain the classroom presentation technology along with presentation technology for use in other spaces on campus.  If you need help with Blackboard, working with PowerPoint, editing an image, or creating a .pdf from a paper document, we can help.  Stop by and see us.

Introducing e-print.

You can now print from your own laptop, tablet, pad, or even phone from the Fuqua Technology Commons.  Apple users should only have to change from the library wireless network to the FTC Printer network, then print from the HP Laserjet 600 printer.  PC users may be able to perform the same changes, but they might have to download the printer driver, which they can do from this link.

Please feel free to provide feedback.  Do you like this service?

The Fuqua Technology Commons promotes the recycling of electronics as it is preferable to dumping technology into landfills.  Prince Edward County has several locations (Worsham, Tuggle landfill, Prospect 460W, and Rice 460E) where residents can dispose of electronics.  STEPS in Farmville also accepts electronics recycling.  Although this is not an advertisement, we wanted to make you aware that Best Buy has a recycling program for technology you are prepared to discard.  Please see the Best Buy Recycling web page for more information.  If you are interested in reading a bit more on this topic, there was an interesting piece in the Washington Post titled Promoting the Recycling of E-waste.
