 Greetings Campus Community,

 The Learning Management System (LMS) Selection Advisory Committee has been engaging with the community to find a replacement for Sakai. So far, we have had town halls with the School of Humanities and Sciences, Park School of Business, the School of Music, Park School of Communications, and there has been one student focus group. This week the Advisory Committee and action groups will have two town halls for Health Sciences of Human Performance. The feedback from the sessions and direct emails has been very helpful in guiding the process and formulating what is important to the campus community in a new system.

We have established a web site: https://www.ithaca.edu/lmsproject which has more information about the project, and more opportunities to provide feedback to the Advisory Committee.
