The 2016 Regional Campus Technology Day events were successfully held at the
Malden, Kennett, and Sikeston campuses on September 14th, 15th, and 16th. The
purpose of these events is to give Regional Campus students, faculty, and staff the
opportunity to have hands-on technical assistance from Information Technology User
Services personnel. This is the second year these events have been offered.
Each day from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., students, faculty and staff received assistance
with tasks such as connecting to Wi-Fi, setting up email on their mobile devices and
general technology questions regarding basic antivirus procedures, accessing the
Portal and Moodle, as well as other technology related topics. While at the regional
campuses, scanners were replaced with updated models in the three open computer
labs. The new scanners feature sheet feeders and can scan both sides of a document.
Free technology related accessories, such as phone kickstands, microfiber cloths, and
touchscreen styluses, were also given away to participants.
The next Regional Campus Technology Day events will be held in January or February
of the Spring 2017 Semester. For more details regarding these events, check the next
