Students - good news! The Netpass expiration period for student accounts has been changed to 1 year. That means the next time you change your password, you'll be able to keep using the same password for a whole year! This only applies to Netpass, not other accounts such as Parnassus or HomerConnect.

Faculty and staff Netpass passwords will continue to have a 120-day expiration policy. Since faculty and staff accounts often have access to sensitive college data, a 120-day expiration period is considered to be a "best practice".

Jennifer Tennant, Economics Department, published in the IZA Journal of Labor Policy with Howard Chernick and Cordelia Reimers, "Tax Structure and Revenue Instability: The Great Recession and the States."

 

Contributed on behalf of Gerald Hector, Vice President for Finance and Administration.

I have been asked by a number of people how we will fill the position of Associate Vice President for Information Technology Services following the recent retirement of Ed Fuller.  Per our usual policy, we will conduct a national search for this position, assisted by a nationally recognized search firm (to be identified).  The search is expected to continue through the summer of 2014 with the goal of having a candidate selected by August of 2014.  Dean Karl Paulnack has agreed to chair the campus search committee, and the remainder of the committee will be selected from members of the faculty and staff in the near future.  The leadership team within ITS will report directly to me until the new AVP is in place.
