Student Resources Available through Jeff-IT
Unified Login: The Campus Key is a unique login name and
password provided to each faculty and staff member at Thomas Jefferson
University and Thomas Jefferson University Hospital. You will need
your Campus Key to get into personalized sections of the University's
Internet portal (Pulse), e-mail, student records, library databases
and more.
Campus Portal: Pulse, http://pulse.jefferson.edu,
is the official web portal of Thomas Jefferson University. It serves
as the single location for all faculty, staff and students to access
on-line information at the University. Using your Campus Key, you
can access many TJU resources from any computer with an Internet
connection, including courses you teach, organizations to which
you belong, current news releases, latest research developments,
clinical care information and more. You can also use easy to follow
instructions to personalize your Pulse page for your convenience.
Wireless Access: The Student Wireless Network is available
in all three dorms (Orlowitz, Barringer, and Martin) as well as
Jeff Hall Mezzanine and the first four floors of Scott Library.
Services that are currently available through the wireless network
are Email, World Wide Web, Instant Messaging (AIM, ICQ, MSN Instant
Messenger, Yahoo! Instant Messenger), Telnet, SSH, and FTP.
Academic Research Network: Jeff-IT has installed a separate
Academic Research Network (ARN) for clients who wish to have Internet
access without accessing secure clinical services. The ARN was created
to afford students the opportunity to access the Internet at TJU
without compromising the university's security policies for the
clinical network, which houses confidential patient data. Jeff-IT
has expanded this service to researchers and is working to increase
the availability of the ARN throughout the campus.
Internet Access Service: Thomas Jefferson University offers
free access to the Internet through 173 public access computers
located at various locations on campus. Jeffersonians and their
affiliates, as well as the general public are welcome to use the
public computers by following the simple instructions posted at
each computer. Library and Learning Resource Center staff members
are available for assistance with obtaining guest passes for computer
access as well as assistance with locating and accessing public
computers.
