The College of Extended
Learning is in the process of a significant restructuring. We are taking
advantage of changes on our main campus, and, frankly, responding to the
challenge put down by our competition to re-invent ourselves to be
successful as we move into a new age in higher education.
This is not a painless
process, as you well know, and we are working diligently to make it as
swift and productive as we can. With the wealth of knowledge within our
organization at our fingertips we believe that we have a plan that
places students first and faculty second, and will be even better at
providing educational opportunities worldwide.
Most of the changes will be
internal, with some notable exceptions (see the article on New
Faculty Center). You will likely not even be aware that change is
occurring. Our goal is to develop our core competencies to become a more
efficient, effective organization, and we anticipate that your
experience of this change will be in a subtle realization that things
are running more smoothly all the time. However, there will be some
bumps along the way, so please "Pardon Our Mess," as the sign says.
How can you help? It’s simple:
Activate your Global ID, forward the e-mail to an account that you check
frequently (or check the CMU account weekly), stay tuned to the Faculty
Resource Center, and stay involved and engaged in both your discipline
and the discipline of university teaching. Instructions for activating
your Global ID (see article on CMU global ID).
