Hello all. We have reached that point in the semester once again where you have to consider what you want to enroll in for the Fall. Below is a list of the classes that will be available. 

If you are interested in the Minor, the first three classes are a must! 

Jason Pappas, a serial entrepreneur that has begun more than 10 companies, will be teaching a section of ENTR 200 (Intro to Entrepreneurship). Based on our conversations, I can ensure you it is a class that will be well worth your time. 

Gib Mason...all I can say, take his class! You won't regret it. Livin' the Dream!
This class will teach you HOW to think as an entrepreneur and to evaluate problems from a multitude of perspectives. 

Finally, Dr. David Hoffman (Assistant Director of Student Life--Civic Agency) and Delana Gregg (Honors College) have been teaching this class for the past few years. You will learn a lot about what it takes to get a social project, non-profit, or civic movement launched, managed, and how to set yourself up for success.

The Department of Human Resources and the Division of Information Technology continue to make progress as we move towards migrating the campus to electronic timesheets.  As previously indicated in an earlier post, Human Resources and the DoIT division will be the first to go live.  When, you ask? 

Both areas will start utilizing electronic timesheets with the pay period that begins on April 22, 2014.  With a phased-in approach, HR anticipates having the two units live for at least three pay periods before transitioning a group of administrative departments.  This will allow us to address any issues that may arise as well as smoothly transition the next group of departments to go live.

Please keep posted to the ETS Workgroup for updates and additional information.
