The final issue of the SCU

The System Campus Update (SCU) newsletter has run every other month for the last five years. It has helped us to share information across campuses and stay informed of projects and staff comings and goings.

However, things have changed. In a recent survey we sent to newsletter recipients, we found that the newsletter was no longer a critical component to cross-campus communication. Readers most valued project updates and system council news, but indicated that they get these kinds of information in other, more timely ways such as through project communications, meetings, and regular contact with their peers.

After careful consideration, we have decided to discontinue the System Campus Update newsletter. The SCU blog will remain available as an archive. We will also maintain the All Campus Google Group. Eleanor will continue to keep a pulse on system campus matters and has the ability to reach this audience on short notice. You may contact her directly with any needs.

We encourage you to continue sharing information in meaningful ways with those who need to hear it. This includes communicating with stakeholders in your projects, making sure to deliver critical information from system council meetings to your staff, and building relationships with colleagues across units. As always, system project statuses are available.
