Using the Campus Lab Desktop
Before using this guide, please make sure you have the Citrix ICA Client already installed on your system. The Campus Lab Desktop is a remote access of a Windows lab machine on campus. The desktop of the lab machine will display over the top of your computer desktop and will allow you access to every software title we provide in the general access labs.

click the link "Enter the Virtual Lab".

- To the left you will see the Applications menu. Open
the Campus Lab Desktop folder and choose the Campus
Lab Desktop option.
- When you open the Campus Lab Desktop, you will be presented with the
following window asking for access to local files on your computer. If
you check No Access, you will not be able to use your
local files or save to your hard drive. If you check Read Access,
you will be able to see your local files, but not make any changes. Finally,
if you choose Full Access, you will be able to view,
change and create files on your local hard drive. After you have checked
your options, click OK.
No matter which options you choose on this screen, you will always have full access to files stored in your HuskyNet FileSpace (X: drive).
