Fall 2008 Announcements

Welcome to Fall semester! A few announcements as we start a new semester:

New Drake Webmail & Email Outage
As you know, unless this is your first semester, you can access your Drake email through the "Email" icon in BlueView. That email program will be changing to a more full featured email program. The email change is scheduled to take place over Labor Day weekend. This means two things for you:

• When you log on to your Drake email after Labor Day it will look different
  
• There will be no Drake email (student or faculty) from Friday, August 29 11:00pm through at least Aug 31, and probably until Sep 1.

(if you do not know how to access your Drake email and are NOT taking ALOP 242-Living, Learning & Leading in the 21st Century), let me know and I can tell you how to log in to BlueView and your Drake email).


Petition of Candidacy
Now that you all are officially accepted into the ALOP program, the next administrative step is to complete a petition of candidacy. The petition is plan of which classes you will be completing which semester. You need to complete this petition by the time you have 12 credits, but most students find the sooner they do it the better! If you have not yet completed a petition of candidacy, send me an email after classes get started and we can schedule a time to get it done!


Have a great fall semester!
