New Publication Categories For Generic Content

Some faculty members have requested that a general category be available for publications in the faculty/staff directory. This has been added to reduce editing time and eliminate the requirement to categorize every publication.

The new category is called “Relevant Publications and Presentations“, and when used can store publications of any type.

Camps Website Now Available

We launched the new CoT Camps website Thursday. The content for all camps will eventually be located in this section, and it provides an easy way for K-12 students to learn more about what’s offered.

Check out the website and provide some feedback if you see something that needs more work.

Making Directory Updates

The new directory is now available for all of the departments to access on their specific site.

 

Each faculty and staff member is responsible for the accuracy of their own content. To update the content the user will go to: https://www.tech.purdue.edu/faculty_staff/ and use their career account username and password to enter the site. We cannot give access to proxy account access at this time. coming summer 2008

 

This is being done for three reasons:

1. Faculty & staff now have the rights to modify their own content.

2. TCN is phasing out support for the www2 server which houses all of the old faculty/staff data.

3. This will greatly reduce the workload of the department content editors.
