The ChapDesk has served as the IT Help Desk at Lubbock Christian University since 2009. By employing student workers, we allow our technicians the opportunity to connect with students and professors in a unique way. Our technicians come from a variety of academic fields, including engineering, teaching, and of course, information systems and technology. Our goal at the ChapDesk is to provide a superior customer service experience, and to help students, faculty, and staff be successful through the use of technology.
The mission of the Lubbock Christian University Technology Services Department is to empower collaboration and communication to achieve academic and administrative excellence through the strategic use of people, processes, and technology. The Technology Services Department will be acknowledged as an outstanding resource for technology services on a technologically advanced University campus through teamwork, expert knowledge, professionalism, and a commitment to excellence.
