REMINDER:
EXTENSION TECHNOLOGY SURVEY
In
an attempt to assist Extension administration in planning for future
needs in Information Technology, the Information Department has
put together an on-line survey for all WSU Extension personnel to
fill out.
The
survey is aimed at gathering facts about present technology use,
equipment that you have and what you feel you should have, attitudes
and opinions about various technologies and their use for program
delivery and your technology training needs.
Please
take a few minutes to fill out the survey by going to: URL is
http://ext.wsu.edu/TechnologySurvey.html.
We'll
summarize the results of the survey and share them in a future "Extension
Update." Thanks for your assistance.
THIRD
AND FINAL NOTICE: CE MARKETING ITEMS
Because we have not received very many marketing item orders
to date, we are giving you another week to take the opportunity
to place an order.
We're
excited to be offering multiple different Washington State University
Cooperative Extension marketing items this time around. We not only
have clothing for the cold winter months, but we will continue to
offer items for the spring and summer so that you can get prepared
ahead of time for the warmer weather. Take a look at http://ext.wsu.edu/marketing.
Remember,
these items make wonderful gifts! Whether you purchase an umbrella
or jacket, you will discover that you will be very pleased with
your order. Be sure to order by November 15, 2002! Questions? Email
Christy Fitzgerald.
