Because of the renovations to the KU Data Center,
located behind the Stratton Administration Center, electrical power will need to
be turned-off on three different weekends - which will mean outages in
several main systems. The three weekends planned for these outages: 6/29-7/2; 8/17-20; and 11/23-26. Please see the information detailing these outages here: http://www.kutztown.edu/news/brief/2012/June/12-06-13DataCenterServiceOutageSchedule.pdf Mitch Freed, assistant vice provost, Information Technology Many thanks to College of Business associate professor Tom Grant and professor Robert Derstine for their help with writing and editing a piece in the Reading Eagle's Business Weekly which ran yesterday: http://businessweekly.readingeagle.com/?p=3985 Annual Fire Alarm Testing - During the next 2-3 weeks, technicians from Simplex Grinnell Fire Protection will be conducting required annual tests of the fire alarm systems in the North Campus buildings. These tests help assure that all components of the detection and alerting system are functioning properly. While much of this testing can be accomplished silently, full activation of the fire alarm system will be necessary to check the notification devices. This testing will be conducted throughout the workday, however, great efforts will be made to avoid disruption of class sessions and office functioning by conducting the audible portions on off-peak hours and between scheduled class periods. Thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation. Mark W. Hostetter, fire safety technician Please join us as we wish a fond retirement to Mr. Richard Dietrich of the Boehm Science Storeroom. A reception will be held Wednesday, Jun. 20, 11 a.m.- 1 p.m. in the Boehm Science Building, 2nd floor lobby area.
