The Sustainable Campus
Sustainability is difficult. For individuals, it means changing habits that affect the way you live, work, and relax. For institutions like Mary Washington, it means assessment of environmental issues that affect our campus and the wider community. It means reaching out to students to create a culture of environmental awareness, and having a dedicated, hard working group of administrators, faculty, staff, and students working on projects to see this through. Most of all it means creating connections to the world around you, and understanding your place in it. At Mary Washington, we are striving for these ideals.

Administrator and Limited Accounts
July 12, 2011
As part of our efforts to migrate our users to a more modern and supportable computing environment, we are implementing a series of best practices which include the separation of the accounts used for the management of the local machine (desktop or laptop) from those used for other day-to-day business.
This separation of these two types of accounts provides a measure of protection for your computer as viruses, spyware and other malware will find it more difficult to infect your computer if the user account you are using has limited rights to manage the local machine. For simplicity, let’s call

Getting Into UMW
First, there’s a challenge. And a commitment to succeed at it.Then comes focused effort, struggle, maybe a few surprise twists and turns, sometimes disappointment, but never defeat. That’s not you. You look at the challenge from different angles, new perspectives. You regroup and re-engage until finally…mastery.
Because there’s no easy way to get there, and there’s no feeling like it in the world.

Advantages / Disadvantages of Using UMW-Secured or Guest Wireless Networks
September 29, 2011
UMW-Secured:
The UMW-Secured wireless network is a secure wireless network.
The Secured connection will have fewer restrictions about the sites that you can visits than the Guest connection; for example , the Guest connection will not allow access to some sites, such as HTTPS websites.
The secured connection does require the user to have Cisco Clean Access Agent installed on their machine (if it is a Windows machine), as well as having their operating system (Windows/Mac/Linux) up to date. Users also need Virus detection/removal software that is up to date. This means that the user’s computer is up-to-date and patched, and less -

Membership rewarded excellence in theatre. As APO expanded to other schools, it was decided that each chapter was to be called a “cast,” and Fairmont became Alpha Cast.
During the course of the next year, eighteen new chapters were admitted, and twenty

The Program in American Studies
The American Studies Program allows students to explore the complex interactions of peoples, cultures, social structures, and political institutions that have shaped the experiences of peoples living in the United States in an interdisciplinary fashion. What makes American Studies unique is that students are required to explore a particular line of inquiry of their choosing that transcends disciplinary boundaries. These five thematically linked courses can come from any of the affiliated disciplines, including Anthropology, Art History, Communication, Economics, English, Geography, Historic Preservation, History, Interdisciplinary Studies, Linguistics, Music, Politics, Religion, Sociology, Spanish, and Women and Gender -

Archiving is the process used to remove older items from your active Outlook folders and preserve them in separate folders for later referencing. There are a number of advantages to archiving Outlook items. Recent items are more readily accessible by removing the older and seldom-used items; users can better manage their allotted mail quotas; and, depending upon the archive location, file storage can be reduced or reallocated.
Several types of archiving are available in Outlook 2007: automatic archiving (AutoArchive), manual archiving, and a combination of the two.
