Important Note To Administrative Offices

As we continue to work through a significant volume of work orders and projects in Administrative Programming, I want to take an opportunity to remind you of some procedures that will help all of us work as effectively as possible. If you have a smaller programming request, please send those requests to adminprog@alfred.edu. Please do not send those initial programming requests directly to a specific programmer. This will allow us to route your request to a programmer who can best handle your request.

Also, if you have a larger request that you envision will require weeks (or even months) of concentrated programming time, please send those to myself <roberts@alfred.edu>. Projects and larger requests require a conversation about prioritization.

Thank you for continued support and assistance,
Cheers and Fiat Lux!
