The Open Computing Facility is an all-volunteer student organization located at the University of California, Berkeley. We're passionate about open source and free software.
Our volunteers maintain services for the Berkeley community. Among others, we offer:
- A spiffy computer lab in 171 MLK Student Union
- Web & email hosting for thousands of student groups and individuals
- Free printing for all UC Berkeley students
- Shell accounts on our powerful on-campus servers
- High-performance computing on our GPU server
- ...and lots more!
We hold weekly staff hours to provide assistance with account issues or with OCF services. Drop by to ask questions or just to hang out!
Interested in free & open-source software?
Our volunteer staff team helps create and maintain the OCF services you use.
We're always on the lookout for new members interested in learning more about technology and open source!
