What's New This Term?

• Welcome to the first edition of The OnLion, the Center for Online Learning's Faculty Newsletter. Congratulations to our “Name the Newsletter” contest winners Don Gregory, Ray Quillin, and Patricia Wheeler. In addition, we would like to thank the following faculty members for their creative suggestions: Kathy MacLellan, Pat Guthrie, Kevin Mallory, Lucia Farriss, Robert Whale, Gwen Whitham, Brent Heard, Hadia Chaker, Tom Rothruaff, Bill Foley, Anne Kuhta, Brian Butterly, Iain Duffy, Richard Dery, and Jody Conway.

• The COL would like to remind you that beginning with the Summer I Term all correspondence between faculty and students must remain in the classroom. Please use the internal email client provided within the Communicate section of your individual class to send and receive messages.  

• In keeping with this new policy please make sure you have removed all references to your personal email address in your class news, the body of your biography, syllabus, and   any other files or attachments given to students.  

• Please remember, however; the COL staff will continue to correspond with you via your personal email account. The accuracy of your contact information is crucial. Make sure that all contact information has been updated utilizing the form provided through the Faculty Users Guide located on the COL website.

• Scheduling changes regarding discipline chats will take effect as of Summer I Term. Turn to page 2 for more information.

•  The “Chatterbox” will be live every Wednesday from noon until 1pm. See page 2 for more information.
