CGS 2100 uses a Skills Assessment Manager (SAM) to help students prepare for assignments and skills tests regarding Microsoft Office. The codes are available for purchase from the bookstore only, not from the library. The following is from the SAM information page:
"Students may not share these access codes; each student must have his or her own." Similarly, if you purchased a used textbook, you will still need to purchase a new SAM key code.
"SAM accounts will not be activated until at least two weeks after the beginning of the semester"
"...it is your responsibility to remember your SAM username and password. [EECS] are not responsible for lost usernames and passwords. Finally the bookstore does not keep a continuous supply of SAM access codes. If you decide to wait until the last minute to purchase one and the bookstore is out, you will be unable to make up the test."
