WEB
SITE CONNECTS USU ALUMNI TO CAMPUS
Utah State University is connecting with students and alumni
through a new internal communication, news and promotional Web
site which can be accessed through e-mail. Utah State Today
officially took off Sept. 9. A technological step above its
predecessors, the Web site takes the place of a former publication
"Inside USU."... Utah State Today reduced printing
cost and is interactive, Smart said. The goals of Utah State
Today are to inform the community of USU news and events, to
recognize outstanding accomplishments of the faculty and staff,
to build a more diverse campus through communication and to
foster intellectual curiosity. ... To view the Web site, or
to subscribe free of charge, visit http://utahstatetoday.usu.edu.

USU FACES ACCUSATIONS
IT MONOPOLIZES BUSINESS: STUDENT ASSOCIATION SAYS UNIVERSITY

Stop Monopolies On Campus to combat what they perceived as obvious
monopolistic inequities. (Standard Examiner, 11/24/02)
