Ordering stationery and business cards
Publications Services has produced a procedures manual
that outlines guidelines for proper use of the University’s new logo.
It is available at www.rochester.edu/publications/graphicstandards. The
University also is working with Oser Press to develop an online system for
ordering stationery and business cards. The system is expected to be
completed by January 2008. Until the new system is in place, faculty and
staff should follow the interim procedures for ordering stationery and
business cards outlined on the Web site.

Managing spam
Users of messaging services provided to faculty,
staff, and students by University Information Technology will soon have
access to a new level of spam protection. The physics and astronomy,
chemistry, and psychology departments are currently piloting the new
offering and experiencing an 83 percent reduction in spam. The Web
interface will allow users to login using their NetID and manage their spam
accounts and quarantines. Users can follow project progress at “IT
Notices” at www.rochester.edu/it. For more information, contact your
department’s computer liaison or the IT Center at 275-2000 or
