Technology on Your Own Terms Series Continues April 7

The Weinberg Memorial Library and the CTLE are continuing the Technology on Your Own Terms series, hosting its next hands-on technological training on Wednesday, April 7, from noon to 1 p.m. in the Weinberg Memorial Library, Room 306.

The title of the next session is “Share with Surety: Facebook Privacy Settings for the Casual Facebook User.”

Confused about the ever-changing privacy settings in Facebook? Want to have more control over the content you share? In "Share with Surety: Facebook Privacy Settings for the Casual Facebook User," Donna Mazziotti will fill participants in about the latest version of Facebook's Privacy Policy. She will also walk participants through customizing their own Facebook Privacy Settings, armed with the knowledge of what each setting means.

It is assumed that participants in this workshop already have a Facebook account, and will have their login information with them when they attend.
 
All faculty and staff members are welcome, but seats are limited, so please register for sessions at www.scranton.edu/ctleregistration (under Special Events).

Draft University Strategic Plan for Review

Over the past year, the University Planning Committee, Administrators’ Conference and Planning Office have been working in collaboration to develop a draft strategic plan for the University that will take us through 2010-2015. This strategic plan will play a critical role in guiding our activities, spending and growth during the coming five years. The plan will be supported by the activities of the University’s tactical plans, which outline the ways in which the strategic themes will be put into action.  

Your feedback is important. Please take a few moments to review the current draft of this plan, available at https://royaldrive.scranton.edu/xythoswfs/webui/_xy-1368431_1-t_OIAYWVPQ. If you would like to share any comments or suggestions on the plan, e-mail planning@scranton.edu by Friday, April 16.
