Network Userspace File Backup for Graduating Seniors

As in years past, ITS is pleased to offer this service to our graduating seniors. ITS will burn a disc of your network userspace files, up to 4.5GB, so you can take your most important documents, photos, and other school files with you. Of course, if you have an external hard drive and simply wish to copy your files there instead, that’s fine too.

To take advantage of this service, you’ll need to copy your network space files to the Tempisk:

From Windows, go to Start, Run, and type in \\fargo3\tempdisk

From Mac OS, from the Finder menu, choose Go, Connect to server, and enter smb://fargo3/tempdisk

Choose the current day of the week, and create a folder there named after your login ID (xxx02008, e.g.) and copy up all the files you want backed up, up to 4.5GB.

Then send an e-mail to help@pomona.edu with the words “DVD archive for” followed by your name, in the subject line. Include your mailbox number, and we will then burn the disc and drop it in your mailbox at Smith Campus Center.

This is a limited time offer, ending on the last day of finals (Friday, May 11th). And remember, after August 31st, you will no longer have access to your network files.

One last thing to remind you of:

If you wish to purchase your own copy of Microsoft software (Office for Mac & Windows and Windows 7), go to http://pomona.onthehub.com and you can choose either a digital download or an actual CD or DVD of the purchased software.

Digital Pedagogy Integrations Program

Invitation to Faculty to Participate in a new Digital Pedagogy Integrations Program

All voting faculty are cordially invited to submit a proposal describing a project you would like to undertake that involves experimenting with new technological approaches that would have a major impact on your teaching and enhance student learning in a specific course, either a new course or one you wish to re-design.

The intent of Digital Pedagogy Integrations is to provide special ongoing support over a summer or a semester to faculty wishing to develop their technological expertise by incorporating a new technology into their teaching.

Each successful applicant will receive a $500 stipend. To kick the program off, we will offer a 2-day faculty development workshop May 14-15. Bryan Alexander from NITLE (National Institute for Technology in Liberal Education) will provide a keynote address on technology in liberal education.
