A&R Corner

July 13-17, 2009 is YOU COUNT WEEK at SCE! In our campaign to collect the most accurate and updated student information, we have launched the YOU COUNT campaign over the past year.

This week, during YOU COUNT WEEK, we are asking our dedicated faculty members to take a few minutes in their classes to share with students the importance of keeping their student record updated and the methods for which they can update their record.

Links to the copy of the letter going to all instructors as well as talking points and a copy of our YOU COUNT flier are below:

You Count Week Activities:

• Instructors are asked to read their myGateway and email messages regarding YOU COUNT WEEK, including links to a letter from Christine Terry, talking points regarding the YOU COUNT campaign, and the YOU COUNT campaign flier.
• Instructors will receive a notice on iTendance, reminding them of YOU COUNT WEEK, and referring them to their electronic messages.
• Students will receive a YOU COUNT WEEK message when logging into myGateway, asking them to update their student information. The methods for updating their information will also be shared.
• Electronic pin pads have been installed at the three campus A&R offices for students to enter their social security number; this number will go straight into BANNER!
• Additional YOU COUNT posters will be placed around campus.
• Additional YOU COUNT fliers will be placed at the A&R offices, ESL Labs, HS Labs, Learning Centers.

Feel free to refer to any of the materials to answer any questions. You can also contact your program manager, Dean or Jennifer Perez with additional questions.

Thank you for all that you do to ensure proper data collection and for making YOU COUNT WEEK successful!
