The old www.tamu-commerce.edu URL is still working for<BR>> now, but it will become non- functional in exactly 10 months. Please<BR>> make arrangements to phase out any references to the old URL.<BR>><BR>> 2) E-mail addresses will also be changed, but not until we settle on a<BR><BR>> new naming protocol. The president has asked that we all vote on one<BR>> of the following options:<BR>><BR>> A) first_last@tamuc.edu<BR>> B) first.lat@tamuc.edu<BR>> C) firstlast@tamuc.edu<BR>> D) lastfirst@tamuc.edu<BR>><BR>> As you are well-aware, option "A" causes numerous problems because the<BR><BR>> underscore between first and last names gets hidden in underlined<BR>> hyperlinks. If you would like to make comments (on this or any other<BR>> topic) to the faculty list, just click "reply all" to this message or<BR>> send a note to coseafaculty@tamu-commerce.edu.<BR>><BR>> Either way, please send your vote to Lisa Rabe by the end of this<BR>week.<BR>><BR>> Many thanks, Grady<BR>><BR>> ===============================================<BR>> Grady Price Blount, Ph.D., Professor of Physics and Dean, College of<BR>> Science, Engineering & Agriculture (CoSEA) Texas A&M<BR>> University-Commerce Commerce, Texas 75429-3011<BR>> Telephones: 903-886-5781 (office) 325-716-0450 (cell)<BR>> ===============================================<BR>> Talent hits a target no one else can hit.<BR>> Genius hits a target no one else can see.<BR>> -Schopenhauer<BR>><BR>><BR>><BR>> _______________________________________________<BR>> COSEAfaculty mailing list<BR>> COSEAfaculty@tamu-commerce.edu<BR>> <A href="http://mailman.tamu-commerce.edu/mailman/listinfo/coseafaculty">http://mailman.tamu-commerce.edu/mailman/listinfo/coseafaculty</A><BR><BR><BR>_______________________________________________<BR>COSEAfaculty mailing list<BR>COSEAfaculty@tamu-commerce.edu<BR><A href="http://mailman.tamu-commerce.edu/mailman/listinfo/coseafaculty">http://mailman.tamu-commerce.edu/mailman/listinfo/coseafaculty</A><BR><BR>_______________________________________________<BR>COSEAfaculty mailing list<BR>COSEAfaculty@tamu-commerce.edu<BR><A href="http://mailman.tamu-commerce.edu/mailman/listinfo/coseafaculty">http://mailman.tamu-commerce.edu/mailman/listinfo/coseafaculty</A><BR></FONT></P></DIV></BODY></HTML>
