As our West Texas climate brings in another windy and dust-filled spring, please note that dust is problematic when combined with computing equipment! You can improve the health of your computer and possibly extend its life by following a few simple practices.
The TTU campus is enjoying a record summer enrollment, new construction, and a flurry of activities as we prepare for another academic year. For those vacationing this summer, we provide some traveling tips to help protect institutional and personal information and devices, as well as a reminder about keeping your eRaider password secure. With the fall semester quickly approaching and several nominations already submitted, we remind you to nominate departmental projects in your area for our Excellence in IT Innovation Award. Finally, we provide an article from the Federal Trade Commission—“Protecting Your Child’s Privacy Online,” as part of our Parents’ Corner summer series. We hope you enjoy what remains of the summer! Go Tech!
Welcome to another exciting, record enrollment fall at Texas Tech University! As the campus gears up for another busy fall semester, the TTU IT Division offers our “back-to-school” bulletin edition to provide information on TTU IT resources and services available for our campus community. For researchers, we provide information about our High Performance Computing (HPC) Center to support your research projects that require HPC resources. For all employees and students, we provide highly valuable content through Skillsoft Online Learning, NBC Learn, and instructor-led computing ShortCourses. Finally, we encourage all of you to explore these readily available TTU IT resources and services as we embark on another academic year. Go Tech!
As another successful fall semester and calendar year draw to a close, we dedicate this bulletin to celebrating our many campus partners. These partnerships allow us to better leverage our IT resources in support of TTU’s institutional strategic priorities. Working together, we are able to contribute meaningfully to student success, scholarly activity, and outreach. From our families to yours, Season’s Greetings and we wish you a restful winter break. Happy New Year!
