In October, Holy Cross became a testing site for Tek.Xam,

Colleges, Tek.Xam has been endorsed by companies such as
AT&T and IBM. The five and one-half hour test measures
students' abilities in seven technological skills areas:
Internet research and evaluation; general computing concepts;
Web site design; presentation software; spreadsheet; word
processing; and the legal and ethical issues
related to technology.
