> PRINCETON PUBLISHES COMPREHENSIVE TECHNOLOGY POLICIES ON WEB
> Princeton University has published guidelines interpreting University
> core policies as they apply to campus information technologies and
> University-supported Internet access. While such guidelines have been
> in place for many years, the new edition (1) covers not only centrally
> administered systems but all University-owned resources and those
> privately owned but operating under the Princeton aegis; (2) results
> from a broad collaboration of campus constituencies, including
> undergraduate student government representatives; and (3)is the first
> Web-only edition. See http://www.princeton.edu/guidelines.html

> UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS/AUSTIN LIBRARIES PUT DONATION FORM ONLINE
> The General Libraries at the University of Texas at Austin has put an
> online donation form on its Web site. The form is designed to be used
> primarily by library supporters who are interested in funding a book
> in memory or in honor of someone, or to mark a special occasion. The
> secure donation form allows the donor to designate the honoree and to
> specify any preference for the subject of the book to be purchased.

> UNIVERSITY OF DELAWARE SETS UP DISTANCE ED ENVIRONMENT ON WEB
> The University of Delaware has developed Serf, a "server-side
> educational records facilitator," which provides an environment for
> delivering courses anywhere in the world. This "servant on the
> Internet" lets students navigate a syllabus, access instructional
> resources, communicate, and submit assignments, while instructors can
> grade assignments via the Serf gradebook. See

> APPALACHIAN STATE FACULTY TRY DIGITIZED PHOTO CLASS ROSTERS
> To increase interpersonal relationships between faculty and students,
> Appalachian State University faculty are using the campus Web server
> to view and print photos of students in their classes. They can choose
> an option from the campus Web home page which prompts for
> identification and authorization, then presents the faculty member's
> class sections for a particular semester. Faculty can select a
> specific section and view student photos. The roster is created from
> information provided from faculty and student records and the
> digitized photos from the campus ID card center. Contact: Jeff
> Williams, willjt@appstate.edu

> UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS OFFERS COLLEGIAL DISTANCE LEARNING PROGRAM
> LEEP3 is a site-independent, distance education scheduling option for
> the Master of Science degree offered by the Graduate School of Library
> and Information Science (GLIS) at the University of Illinois at
> Urbana-Champaign. To provide support and collegiality similar to that
> available to on-campus students, the option includes a mentoring
> program, brown-bag discussions using MOOs and RealAudio, and online
> searching using a double telnet session where students can see a
> search and also see faculty comments about that search. See
