IT Times Summer 2006
Dubbed the "Sakai Edition," this special edition of the IT Times will mark the beginning of our first major phase of communications before Fall 2006. The IT Times is a quarterly newsletter which provides practical and timely information, primarily for UC Davis faculty and staff, about information and educational technology issues facing the campus, current and upcoming IET services, and technology-related campus projects and initiatives.
This special issue will be delivered on campus the first week of June (i.e., before finals week, and before faculty leave for the summer). If you'd like to join the planning team, send a quick email to babette@ucdavis.edu.
