<p>UD does not mandate that students bring computers, but it is highly recommended. Students really do need one to check their official UD email and a number of courses do have on-line components to them. UD gets around requiring students to have a computer by offering computer access through a number of computer labs and other sites throughout the campus. I would wager that over 95% of students do bring some type of a computer with them. It is much more convenient to have one of your own in your dorm rather than having to access one at some other site on campus. I do not believe that you will be able to get any type of “official” document from UD stating computers are “required”. The only thing I could suggest would be to contact the Economics Dept. at UD and inquire about whether they “require” their students to have a computer (but I tend to doubt this would be the case). If they do perhaps you might be able to get something in writing from them.</p>
