Friday, March 21, 1997
FORT COLLINS--A contribution of 400 scanners from Hewlett-
Packard Co. will make electronic life easier for students and
faculty at Colorado State University.
The HP ScanJet 4s scanners, worth $95,600, were contributed
to the university to strengthen education, outreach and research
endeavors.
"You can use them with e-mail, and you can take any material
that's in print and scan it, including photos," said Greg Hoeck,
computer technician at Colorado State. "You can scan documents,
for example, instead of typing the entire text by hand. They're
versatile devices."
Overall, HP has given gifts of equipment and cash dedicated
to scholarships, student aid and diversity programs to Colorado
State totaling more than $12 million.
Engineering, computer science and business are the primary
areas in the university with strong relationships with HP. The
company also devotes thousands of hours of cooperative efforts
with the university, and HP employees serve as mentors to
undergraduate students through summer, part-time and intern
positions. Employees also address classes, serve as judges for
professional competitions and volunteer on university advisory
boards.
