In Case You Missed It:
 (Announcements and other information that have previously appeared in the Daily Brief.)
Kutztown University will be converting Desire2Learn to Active Directory authentication on Aug. 16, from 8 - 11 a.m. This will change D2L usernames to email addresses and your password will be the same as your email password. Please note the system will not be available for use during this time.

After the change is made, you will log in with your official Kutztown email as your username and use the same password as you use to access your email. Your old username and password for D2L will no longer work after Aug. 16 at 11 a.m.

We hope that you will appreciate this change and quickly adjust to having one less username and password to remember. If you have any questions, please contact D2LAdmin@kutztown.edu.


 The Opening Day gathering will be held on Monday, Aug. 29, in Schaeffer Auditorium. A continental breakfast at 7:30 a.m. will precede the annual opening day address and presentations given by our union and university Senate leaders at 8 a.m.  

The Arthur and Isabel Wiesenberger Faculty Award for Excellence in Teaching will also be presented at this event. Please remember that college, division and department meetings scheduled for this day are held at the discretion of the appropriate leadership.
