WHO Wants to Know?
I recently applied for
@ credit and was denied. Is
there anything | can do?
Yes. First, find out why you
@ were turned down. By law,
the creditor must tell you the reason.
If the reason was a bad credit report,
the creditor must tell you which credit
bureau supplied the report as well as
how to get in touch with that bureau.
Under the terms of the Fair Credit
Reporting Act, you have the legal
right to know what’s in your credit
report. Furthermore, if you have been
denied credit in the past 30 days, you
have a right to see, at no charge, the in-
formation on your record. And if you
find errors, you have the right to chal-
lenge any wrong information. The
credit bureau has to investigate and in-
form you of its findings, usually
within 30 days. If the findings prove
you’re right, you can insist that the
bureau inform any creditor who re-
quested a report on you in the past six
months.
Even if the credit bureau findings
disagree with your side of the story,
you can still file a short statement giv-
ing your explanation, and it will go in-
to your record.
If the follow-up to your credit
denial reveals that the reason was that
you don’t have a credit record estab-
lished, or that you need to reestablish
one, you should take action to build
up your credit rating.
| don't have a great deal
@ of time to read up on job
opportunities. What about video-
tape career guides?
Using a videotape career
@ guide might be your answer.
There are many such tapes available,
but not all can be found at your local
bookstore or video shop. Check with
your school’s career planning and
placement officer for a list of titles.
A visit to your school’s career and
placement office might also turn up
other high-tech job-hunting aids. For
instance, many schools offer students
an interactive PC-based program
named Discover, in which they can
learn more about themselves by taking
an inventory of interests and abilities.
So, even if you’re not looking for a
career in a high-tech field, you can
take advantage of some high- fects
time-saving programs.
My roommate recently
@ asked me to duplicate
one of my computer programs so
he could have his own copy.
Would this be legal?
A Although you don’t think of
@ yourself or your roommate as
a “‘Software Pirate,’’ this seemingly
harmless activity would violate the law
under the Federal Copyright Act.
This law protects original works, in-
cluding computer programs, from un-
authorized duplication. When you
purchase software, you are permitted
the following limited scope of activi-
ties:
e modifying the program to run on
another computer
e allowing a friend to use your pro-
gram while working on your computer
e¢ making one backup copy of the soft-
ware
¢ selling or leasing the program and
associated backup copies
By duplicating the software for
your roommate, you would fall out-
side of legally permissible activities.
This also applies to the user manual.

Students, your assignment today is
to learn how to use the Smith Corona
XL 2500 typewriter.
Ooops, don’t get too settled in your
seats. The XL 2500 isn’t a very difficult
study.
In fact, unlike most electronic type-
writers, it’s a downright snap to pick up.
The Spell-Right™ 50,000 word elec-
tronic dictionary adds new meaning to
the word “‘simple”’
WordEraser’ erases entire words at
a single touch.
WordFind’ finds your mistakes before
anyone else can.
The XL 2500 even makes correcting
mistakes as easy as making them.
With the Smith Corona Correcting
Cassette, you simply pop
in your correction tape.
There are no spools
to unwind. ..no com-
plicated threading
...no tangles.
Of course, we've also added lots
of other fine features to the XL 2500.
There’s full line correction, Auto
Half-Space, Auto Center, even our Right
Ribbon System? which automatically
prevents you from using the wrong
combination of ribbon and correcting
cassette.
Oh, one more feature we forgot to
mention —the price. You'll be happy to
hear that the XL 2500 is surprisingly
affordable. aps
So you see, the XL 2500 £ #7 3%
won't just make your writing |
easier. }
It’ll also help you with
your economics.

Why it's easy for students to get
a Citibank credit card.
As a student, you’ve obviously been through a lot—
lengthy lectures, grueling exams, numerous papers.
And Citibank thinks you deserve credit for all that.
That’s why we’ve made it easy for you to appl
for credit. :
You don’t even need your parents to fr
co-sign. (What other bank makes it that easy?) ©
All you need is a photocopy of your student
|D—and you must be a junior, senior or
graduate student.
The only other thing is to choose one of our
cards. A Citibank MasterCard® or Visa® card.
Either one will give you a head start estab- Dalal : oe
lishing credit. And because we'd like along-tem 5
relationship with you, we’ll review your account
periodically so we can increase your credit line.
What’s more, as a Citibank cardmember, you can
get cash 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. From the
largest network of automatic teller machines across
the country.
So just follow the simple steps outlined below.
And remember, even though most banks are
looking for reasons to say no to you, Citibank wants
to say yes.

money you’ll need to make it usable.
e How big is it? The amount of
memory (RAM) needed to run the
program is a crucial factor. Many ful-
ly configured word-processing pack-
ages require 512K of memory and two
disk drives. Some simple word-pro-
cessing programs squeak by on only
128K of memory, and still deliver a
modest range of features.
@ What features do you need? A spell
checker? An automatic footnote in-
serter? A document translator that
can format files for use by other pro-
grams? If you are in a specialty field
look into specialized software diction-
you create outlines, indexes, Paples of
contents, and impressive reports.
Easy Editing
One of word processing’s best fea-
tures is the ease with which you can
make corrections. You can also proof-
read, edit, and restructure any docu-
ment you write— before you print out
a single page. All this could give you
time to do extra research, or see a
movie. It all depends on the software
you choose, some of which is available
on a trial basis. For sources, check
with your school’s computer support
services, or with user groups, electron-
ic bulletin boards, software stores, or
mail order houses.
More than 64 percent of all PC own-
ers use their machines for word pro-
cessing. They are almost universally
creating documents that are well-
organized, visually appealing, and ef-
ficiently produced.
If you’re still wondering whether
the investment in word processing is
worth it, just ask the student who.

a calculator allows you to explore
complicated problems you wouldn’t
dare undertake without it.
For example, with some of the new-
est hand-held models, you can enter
formulas from, say, an economics
text, and the calculator then takes
over, solving for the equation’s
variables. The advantage: Even if you
can’t do the math, you can work with
the results of the computations. And,
since many calculators have unit-
conversion capability, you won’t have
to lug around heavy reference books
to look up, for example, how many
grams are in a pound.
Broadly speaking, calculators are
categorized as business (financial)
units or scientific (technical) models.
Facts on Financial Calculators
Financial calculators— geared for
students in business, finance, and eco-
nomics— should include, at a mini-
mum, the following functions: time
value of money, amortization, bond
yield and price, and internal rate of re-
turn. Some dedicated financial units
also have one-variable and two-vari-
able statistical functions, currency rate
conversion, and even a time-and-ap-
pointment feature. And for repetitive
calculations, you can easily program
the machine and later execute the pro-
gram with a touch of a button.
The advanced financial models have
lots of permanent storage, allowing
ILLUSTRATION BY TIM WALKER
you to save everything you’ ve done. On
one model, says Bill Wickes, software
project manager at Hewlett-Packard,
you can even print out your results us-
ing a cordless printer activated by an in-
frared light beam.
Programmed for
Problem-Solving
Scientific or technical calculators
serve students of math, engineering,
physics, chemistry, premed, and data
processing. These units perform as
many as 200 different scientific and
mathematical functions: reciprocals,
complex numbers, and the like. In ad-
dition, there are statistical functions,
including mean, standard deviations,
and normal distributions.
But the heart-and-soul of these cal-
culators is their programmability. ‘‘In
the ‘hard’ sciences,’’ says Wickes,
‘“the problems are so varied that it’s
impossible to provide a _ prepro-
grammed key for every situation.’’
This type of calculator, therefore,
serves as a tool box, from which stu-
dents select the tools they need for
each specific application.
Math students and teachers alike
are raving about one of the most ad-
vanced scientific models, which allows
the user to do calculations involving
symbols and matrices — in effect, solv-
ing many of the problems found in ele-
mentary calculus. These problems can
now be presented graphically on the
multi-line displays that are common in
the newest models.
What handy devices, these hand-
held calculators. You’ll work faster,
smarter, and with fewer errors. Don’t
be caught empty-handed. O
Calculating Your
Choices
eep these guidelines in
Ke mind when purchasing a
calculator:
e Suit your own needs. As with any
other purchase, be sure first to
identify your specific needs and
then look for the particular model
that fills them. Social science ma-
jors can probably get by with the
basic statistical functions, while en-
gineering majors need program-
mable calculators with a full range
of functions. Ask students who
have just taken the course what cal-
culator they found useful.
e Decide on the power source.
Hand-held calculators are either
battery-powered or solar-powered.
Some batteries can be recharged;
others must be replaced every year
or so. Solar units require a light
source sufficient to power the solar
cells, so be sure the solar calculator
you buy will work in the light level
that will be available.
e Take a good look at the display.
Most calculators now have a liquid
crystal display (LCD). The display
should be easily read, even in rela-
tively dim light (such as when the
overhead projector is on during a
lecture). And remember, you may
be looking at that tiny screen for
long periods of time.
e Try out the keypad. Are the keys
easy to press without error? Do you
like the touch?
e Consider durability. How much
wear and tear will this calculator
have to take? Does the manufac-
turer have a reputation for building
rugged calculators? Do you need
one that’s encased in a hard pack,
which provides maximum protec-
tion? Or is a simple vinyl covering
sufficient?
© Check the warranty. Your calcu-
lator should have at least a one-year
warranty, and for a more advanced
model you may want to buy a ser-
vice contract.

ILLUSTRATION BY JULIE KOTAR
For now, say many college micro-
computing specialists, students use
electronic services more for play than
work...for the fun of ‘‘people net-
works’’ and free software. Yet others
are beginning to connect with the
serious side of electronic information
services.
“Lots of our students and faculty
work with the BITNET service [an
electronic link between 400 colleges
and universities], and students are get-
ting used to researching papers on
Dialog—but from central computer
locations, not from modems in their
rooms,’’ says Dr. Jan Biros, head of
Drexel University’s successful effort
to put a PC on the desk of all its stu-
dents.
However slow the start, the Infor-
mation Age is beginning to fulfill its
promises to college students. Just five
or 10 years ago, who’d have thought...
that a student could ‘‘CLEP”’ out of a
college course by taking an electronic
seminar held halfway across the coun-
try...that a Midwestern ‘‘Ag’’ pro-
fessor could study grain problems in
Israel—and ‘‘chat’’ daily with stu-
dents back home who want to know
what he’s found out...that from th
comfort (well, semicomfort) of a
dorm room, an ‘‘on-line’’ student c

What are the fees (yearly subscrip-
on fee? one-time fee? user-costs per

- @ Does the service offer clear, com-
plete how-to manuals—or tutorials
for new users?
e Is customer support (human ad-
vice/help) available? During what
hours? Is it on-line (‘‘type-talk’’ on
the computer screen) or toll-free tele-
phone support?
e Will you get newsletters and updates
keeping you abreast of new data
bases, added services, etc.?
e Can you get into the system with a
local call? (If the nearest network
computer is a long-distance call away,
your costs may be prohibitive.)
Because time is money on a com-
puter hookup, it’s vital to choose a

Talk about the next best thing to be
ing there! Listening to your favor-
ite music on a compact disc may
convince you that you are in the
front row of an auditorium.
Gone is the snap-crackle-pop
of black vinyl records — and
in its place is a sonic ex-
perience of once-unimag-
inable clarity, purity, and
sheer dynamic punch.
Such is the impact of the
digital sound revolution,
which has penetrated our
lives with the speed of a
laser beam.
Viewed in any light, the
disc holds sparkling appeal.
Besides producing superior
sound, compact discs (CDs) of-
fer several other benefits:
e There is literally no wear on the
disc, no matter how often it’s played.
¢ The disc’s encoded data—a series of
microscopic pits and flat spaces
recorded on tape. They are then trans-
ferred from tape to disc, decoded back
into musical information by your
CD player, and amplified through
your sound system as Bach, the
Beatles, or Basie.
CD players are a snap to use.
Just pop a disc into the sliding
drawer (which closes at the
touch of a-button) and push
the Play switch. You have
the next-best-thing-to-
being-there sound. No mat-
ter how modest a system
you start with, CDs will
make a head-spinning dif-
ference.
CDs for PCs

valuable adjunct for users of per-
sonal computers too. Currently, one
CD can hold up to approximately
