What computer should I buy?
A boring and repetitive hike through the desert. Parents Against Phone Shaming. A spiritual, simple journey through obstacles.

- As The Leaky Boob commented: “Phone-shaming is one of society’s favorite ways to shame moms.” It sure is. And it needs to stop. Here’s the thing. Shaming a mom for her phone use is worse than just ruining her day. It’s sending that mom the message that taking time for herself or her career is not acceptable.
- Creators of Color: Celebrating the Dynamic Voices in Our Community. We spoke with some of our amazing creators of color to learn how Roblox has widened opportunities for creativity and empowered them to find their identity.
Having a personal computer is not required to attend Wittenberg University. There are plenty of labs around campus for students to use in order to get course work accomplished.
You can also check out the Wittenberg University's Bookstore web page for some options as well.
With that in mind we do have recommendations in purchasing a computer for campus:
- Notebook or Desktop: We recommend a notebook over desktop
- Operating System: Should be Windows 10 Pro or Mac OS 10.15.4 or higher
- Note: We do not recommend Chromebooks because of the numerous incompatibilities
- Memory: at least 8 GBs of memory
- Hard Drive: At least 500 GB (Solid State Drive a.k.a. SSD version is preferred)
- Display / Screen: VGA and/or HDMI output or appropriate adapter
- Networking: 802.11n minimum with 802.11ac preferred
- Software: Students can download and install the Microsoft Office Suite by logging into https://portal.office.com with their campus credentials.
- Accessories:
- It is highly recommended that you have a headset (Headphone or Earbuds with Microphone)
- It is highly recommended that you have a web camera
- Other considerations:
- Check into the warranty for the computer. What exactly is covered by the warranty? How long does the warranty last? What is the process for getting the system fixed or repaired under warranty?
- It is always good to think about physical security of the computer. There are lock down cables that can be bought to secure a computer to a desk. In the case of portable devices, this might be worth looking into as you do not want to leave the device sitting on a desk while you are 'away for a minute'.
What software should I buy?
Wittenberg University offers the Microsoft Office Suite to students through the Office 365 service. You can go to https://portal.office.com and sign in with your campus e-mail address and password, then click the download link. More information on the Office 365 offering can be found at the Office 365 webpage.
Also some of the campus software is availble through our Virtual Desktop system. You can learn more about this from the Virtual Application/Desktop Guide.
We also provide most of the software needed for course work on the campus systems in the labs around campus, so that you do not need to purchase it yourself.

Can I bring a Gaming Console, SmartTV, Chromecast, AppleTV, Firestick and similar devices?
Gaming consoles, SmartTVs, Chromecasts, AppleTV, Firestick and similar devices and are allowed in the residence halls. They just have to be connected to a different wireless network than other devices, called 'witt-air'. More information about this can be found on the Campus Wireless and select the 'witt-air: Wireless for Gaming systems, SmartTVs, Chromecasts and AppleTV' link.
IMPORTANT NOTE: At this time personal home assistant devices, such as Amazon Echo, Google Home, Alexa, or similar, are not supported on campus.
