Access Policies
Use of the Athena facilities is restricted to MIT students, faculty, staff, and other Athena account owners. (See the Additional Rules for Athena Facilities in the Athena Rules of Use.)
To enter these facilities, you need to know the cluster lock combination. To find out this combination (it changes on October 1 each year), enter the following command at your athena% prompt: tellme combo.
List of Athena Clusters and Printers
This chart lists general-use Athena clusters maintained by IS&T, not departmental clusters, electronic classrooms, or other special-purpose facilities. Except for the Athena Consultants' Office, the facilities listed here are available 24 hours a day. For the list of quickstations on capus, see Where are Quickstations Located?
