I attended my first colloquia a couple of weeks ago, with the sole purpose of delivering a couple of presentations to faculty members about the new Portal. What’s Portal you ask? Well, simply put, it’s the new iGuide. It’s a powerful system, with streamlined content and role based materials that should indeed improve your experience and access to information. This will become the new way to interact with us, although there’s so much more work to do and new features to add.
I was hoping that more faculty would participate at colloquia, afterall, it was a chance to meet you and let you know we took your suggestions for enhancements to heart. Several faculty generously provided us with input on the design of the new system in the past year and I was hoping to get more feedback and ideas from the rest of you. It will be released this summer, stay tuned as more communication is coming about that. Once you gain access and are able to interact with it, we’d love to hear what you have to say.
Let us know what you think.

I do not think I was aware that you were in Anaheim. But I had few free hours and those I spent trying to keep up with email and classes which is true for most of us. I did participate in the online overview and review and could not do the one during the colloquia since I was in session. I think as faculty we are quite busy during the last few weeks of the quarter and it is hard to find extra time.
