Administrative computing planning

You may have heard that our current primary administrative system (CARS or Jenzabar CX) is under review. We would like to bring you up to date on the process and solicit your perspective on needs. Please come to a meeting at 3 p.m., Monday, October 20 to review and discuss. The location will be shared in a follow up message.

In addition, please freely share this message. Note that departments generally thought of as regular and heavy data users, such as Business Services, the Registrar, Advancement, Admissions, HR, and others are already part of the process.

The agenda of the meeting is

1. Introductions

2. The role of the administrative system(s)

3. Issues with the current administrative system vendor

4. College collaboration and time table

5. What we need from you.

Thanks and look for the follow-up message with meeting location.
