MACRAO Listserv Down this Evening

Hello MACRAO users. This email is to notify you that the Listserv server that runs this list will be down this evening: Wednesday, June 28th 2014, beginning at around 8:00 PM. It will be back up and running by tomorrow morning.

The listserv server runs as a virtual server and we need to take it offline to perform some updates to the host operating system.

Re: Minutes/Treasurer's Report

Hello MACRAO Friends!

Retirement is GOOD, and I am well. I hope the same is true for all of you. A big THANK YOU for the Amazon Gift Certificate and the nice card. That was unexpected and very much appreciated. It was an honor and privilege to work with all of you and to serve in leadership roles within our fine MACRAO organization.

Take care and remember to keep students first! :)

All best,

Ed

Hi –

If you don’t have a habit of perusing the BOR agendas, there are a couple items of note for admission/registrar types.

Dev Ed Committee – changes to admission policy

Academic/Student Affairs Committee – changes to CCN policy

Re: MACRAO stamp

Hello all,

As far as I know, there is no “official” supplier of the MACRAO Fax stamp. We have used a local vendor, and Helena Stamp Works always does good work. All you need is a sample – Matt, if you need one, let me know and we can scan/email one to you.

Question: since many/most of us use electronic transcript delivery, will we continue to have a need to fax transcripts and the MACRAO Fax authentication? If yes, any ideas on how long we’ll continue to fax transcripts? Indefinitely may be the answer, and that’s ok since it’s a reasonably secure method of transmitting an academic transcript (depending on the in-box of the recipient J). Just wondered about your thoughts, or ideas…

Thanks everyone,

Bonnie

Does anyone know if there’s an official way to order a new “MACRAO Fax” stamp? I can get one, but didn’t know if there were logistics and stuff behind getting a new one.

Thanks!
