Personnel Update: Joel Herron

Joel Herron has announced his resignation from the position of Web Technologist with the Computing Environment Group.  Please join us in thanking Joel for the dedication and talent he has shared with us for the past several years.  Joel’s last day in iCIT will be June 30.

During his time in iCIT, Joel made several notable contributions.  A UW-W graduate, he worked as a technologist for our News and Public Affairs department, which evolved into a shared position with  iCIT in 2005, and eventually a full-time position in iCIT.  Since then, his accomplishments include integration of Google technologies into the UW-W Web environment;  implementation of the Events Calendar; standardization of CSS technologies; installation of Collage CMS and, most recently, acquisition of Ingeniux, a new content management system currently being implemented.   

Joel and family — wife Crystal, who served as interim manager of the iCIT Helpdesk, and their new baby Paige — will be relocating north where Joel will take a position at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh.  We wish him and his family all the best in their future endeavors.
