Overview

Slack

For internal discussion, there is a Demography department Slack workspace for members of the department. Benefits of Slack include: reduced email clutter, and fast, accessible, real-time discussion with colleagues.

Github

For maintaining and contributing to collaborative Demography and Population Science projects that are code-based, we use both public and private Github repositories.

Networking

Eduroam is the recommended Wi-Fi service to use while on campus. Available in almost all buildings across UC Berkeley, eduroam is the most stable and secure, authenticated service. Visitors to UC Berkeley who come from a participating institution will be able to use this WiFi network without the need for guest passes or additional configuration.

Members of the Berkeley community need to create an eduroam wi-fi key

Berkeley-Visitor is a Wi-Fi service intended for visitors to campus. It provides basic internet access to websites and allows users to use VPN services to connect to their home institutions or enterprises. Berkeley-Visitor is not intended for use by members of the campus community who have access to eduroam.

Berkeley remote access VPN service allows CalNet ID–authenticated users to securely access the UC Berkeley network from outside campus and encrypts the information sent through the network. The campus VPN is required to access AEoD & SRDC Virtual Machines, Berkeley administrative tools, and library databases.

Printing

There are many printing options distributed on-campus

Locally, Demography department members can use the in-house printer, Xerox AltaLink C8045. This is maintained by UCSF and Berkeley print services. Connecting to the printer differs whether you are using a Berkeley Managed Desktop or a self-managed machine that you have admin rights on.

Berkeley Managed Desktop

Follow these instructions

Self-managed

If you have admin rights on your machine then you have to download the correct driver MacOS/ Windows and add the printer by the printer’s IP address: 136.152.56.187
