REMINDER: NEW FACULTY ORIENTATION- NOV. 2, 2-5pm
Our agenda for the New Faculty Orientation on Thursday, Nov. 2 from 2-5pm in the MU Horizon Room is coming together and will look fairly similar to last year’s. You should have received a calendar invite update with the agenda in the body of the email. I will circulate a final agenda as we get closer. As always, RO staff is encouraged to attend as much of the event as possible. The panel discussion should be a good one! Please remember to give all handout materials for the “speed dating” tables to Jane as early as possible the week of 10/30. While it’s not imperative that RO Staff RSVP for the event, it wouldn’t hurt for catering headcount so please do take a moment to confirm your attendance here. Contact Jane Cigarran with any questions!

Network Services contacted us today requesting approval for a building-wide network outage from 7:00 – 8:00 AM next Saturday, October 14 so they can switch the Kerr network over to the new building router. Please let me know by Monday at noon if there is any reason they should not proceed as planned.
