Faculty Computer Refresh

The replacement cycle for faculty is being standardized with that for other employees at four years. Faculty had been replaced every three years, including the summers of 2002 and 2005. A four year cycle is manageable for most needs and maximizes our hardware investments.

As we move to a staggered replacement cycle, Summer 2008 we replaced hardware for 3/4 of those involved in the rollout and all involved received updated versions of the software. Summer 2009, 1/4 of those involved will receive new hardware and software. Thereafter, 1/4 of those involved will receive new hardware and software each summer.

Music/Nursing faculty are to review the information in the link below and submit their response by Friday, May 8, 2009.
