Fall Enrollments are UP

We are past the first, hectic week of the fall semester and, hopefully, everyone had a good start. We have faced some new challenges, but all is going well....

Distance Education is growing at a rapid rate! This semester we have 13,047 enrollments in DE courses. That is a 35% increase over Fall 2009. Kudos and thank you to all the excellent faculty and staff contributing to this incredible accomplishment.

The instructional designers will continue to offer support on evenings and weekends so we can carry the momentum of this success throughout the semester and into Spring.

Welcome to Fall

It is here! Fall semester has officially opened and the campus is teeming with students and faculty again. With the new semester comes some important dates to add to your calendar:

August 27: Final day to drop/add classes with 100% refund
September 3: Final day to submit graduation paperwork for fall commencement without a late fee
September 6: Labor Day

The instructional designers will continue to be available on evenings and weekends to serve all faculty with WebCampus questions. This is for all courses, not just distance education. Please take advantage of the service! Upcoming dates are:
