Student employees began using the Kronos automated timekeeping system this fall. This system significantly reduces the time and effort necessary for recording work time. With Kronos, student workers and supervisor approvals are entered online, eliminating the need for paper
timesheets and manual editing. The system is currently implemented for student employee payroll and will later be used for all classified employees.
New Sites Added to Collage
Several campus websites have recently been added to the Collage content management system, and several more are slated for development in the coming months. The iCIT web team has worked hard to provide exceptional customer service and deliver an excellent final product to our web customers.
The College of Letters and Sciences, College of Business and Economics, Career Services and Athletics sites were deployed in the past couple of months (see below). Development of the College of Education site is continuing this fall, and the College of Arts and Communications site will begin in the near future. This will complete the move of all four college sites to Collage.
Work is continuing on the Academic Affairs site, as well. Meanwhile the initial stages of development have begun for the Music, Chancellor’s Office, and Pre-College Programs sites.
