The University Timeline: Getting the Right Information to the Right People at the Right Time in the Right Way

The Princeton Timeline supports the distribution of time-critical information about activities, events, deadlines, and announcements to the Princeton University community (and beyond). The system was developed in response to concerns expressed by students regarding the ineffectiveness of e-mail. This talk will cover the genesis, development, and deployment of the timeline.

Outcomes: Explore the challenges we face in effectively communicating with students * Identify potential problems with hosted voice migrations to head them off at the pass * Identify the limitations of piecemeal approaches to information delivery, specifically on your campus * Understand the value of a consolidated information delivery system and how the timeline works
