Welcome to the Computer Science Support Wiki!
This Wiki has information on nearly everything we do - all the computing services and policies provided by the UVa Computer Science Department (not ITS). There are also answers to some of the most common support requests we receive. If you do not find your answer here, please send mail to cshelpdesk@virginia.edu.
Only CS Staff have access to this wiki. Your CS account is for access to servers and other computing resources, you don't need to log in to this website.
