DMP + Emergency =
Bill and I are working on a simple interface that Public Safety can use to display emergency information on the Digital Signage around campus.
The system uses an authenticated XML file to "start an emergency" and you select which group of Signs you want to be included. We expect to be able to make a secure web app that emergency personnel can use to start and stop an emergency very quickly - possibly even tie it into an emergency notification!

"new" hire ...
So we hired our Video Productions Engineer, but re-tuned the position into a Digital Media Producer. Anyway, we are super excited to have Deborah join the UCS team. She had done some worked with WOU before, but now is working for us full time. Her experience and skill will be a valuable asset to the department and the campus as a whole.
This week will be her trial-by-fire as Commencement (ack!) is Saturday. I am not usually involved in graduation ... BUT since I just finished my Masters in MIS ( Management and Information Systems ) I plan to walk. I mean, you might as well - right?
Anyway, so I'm looking forward to graduation, and soon we'll begin a few video tutorial series - starring me (not that I'm thrilled about that). I think, in the end, it will be a benefit to the campus community - particularly new users.
