Hogben on 04/10/15 The College has recently learned that the convenient fingerprinting machine that is normally brought to campus will be discontinued after this summer, and there will be a new process (likely one that requires travel, perhaps extensive travel, to a different location) for fingerprinting beginning Fall 2015. Given this knowledge, we are encouraging all our undergraduate teaching option majors to complete the fingerprinting process this semester, before these changes take place. This semester's on-campus fingerprinting opportunity will be Tuesday, April 21st. You may sign up for an appointment for your fingerprinting by visiting the Education Department office (194 Phillips Hall) and signing up for a time on the sheets posted to the glass wall outside our conference room. Just ask any one of us, and we'll help you find the right place to sign up!
