Policy on Computer Usage
All prospective users of the Residential Computing Network (RCN),

the RCN Policy.
Since your TCC email is our primary means of communication, you must have
a TCC email account for the length of your connection. If we find that it was
closed or terminated, your port will be disabled until the account is
reactivated. Please see the TCC website
for more information. Or call (505)

Please also
beware that you are responsible for your own virus protection see
virus information below.
ISD recommends installing the antivirus software of your choice. Make certain
that your antivirus software provides updates to the latest virus threats and
that these updates are regularly applied. You may also consider using personal
firewall software for your own PC. As individual threats appear, our dedicated
staff will provide support, containment, and information to the best of our
ability. For more information, please contact ISD at (505) 835-5700 or email
