-Your account will remain on the Prism system for as long as you are registered in  EECS courses( primarily second,third and fourth year courses). If you are not registered in any EECS major course for a given term, your access to the Prism lab will be limited. This means that you will not be able to use a workstation in the Prism lab, nor will you be able to print to the main Prism printers. You may still access the lab remotely via  ssh, read e-mail, use the web server, print to the UIT pay-per-page printers, and all other tasks. If you register in an EECS major course, then you will automatically be given access to the Prism lab machines and printers for that term.
