IT News You Can Use -November 13

 Did You Know

• Every year, ETS distributes an Academic Computing Lab and Classroom Software Survey to faculty. This survey contains the list of software that is currently installed on computers in academic computing labs and classrooms in the College of Engineering, and asks for verification of what software will be needed on the lab machines for upcoming semesters due to scheduled coursework. The survey will come via email to the faculty mailing list and contain links to a Microsoft Form for each department. Due to the length of time it takes for legal/purchasing and accessibility assessments to complete, we are moving up the survey earlier this year. Be on the lookout for the software survey the first week of December as we need to have the list finalized in early 2024!
