      Hey Ben!

      The job aids I’ve seen have felt pre-made (by Workday) though the ones our IT team has put out strike a similar “too basic to be useful” tone.

      Interesting theory and I will 1000% be using the AI method to help get us situated. I’m glad it works. I wonder if it also has to do with how AI is used as part of Workday. Workday doesn’t…

      Many thanks Allen!

      Splitting things up across the office makes sense, nice to hear it’s working (as much as it can).

      It’s also super helpful to know where some of the stumbling blocks have been so I can try to be prepared.

      I’ve also heard that student staff can be difficult to hire/transition over.

      Thanks again!

      Basic Workday Training Materials

      Hello!

      We are in the midst of transitioning to Workday (July 1) for many processes at the university, including all financial and HR functions.

      We have not found the early videos or “job aids” to be particularly useful (no shade intended for our IT team) because they have been VERY basic and don’t show real specifics.

      Has anyone been through…

      Very cool, thanks so much Mike!

      I’ve passed the info along to our inaugural Director for First Generation Engagement. It’s great to see so much being done for this population and amazing to know you’ve been working with these students for a decade in Milwaukee!

      Thanks again!

      Anyone else?

      First Generation Centers

      Hi friends!

      We’re in the early stages of exploring creating a center (within our union) for first-generation students.

      Does anyone have something similar in your spaces or on your campuses?

      Feel free to reply here and/or email me directly.

      Many thanks everyone!

      -Eric

      Hey Brad!

      Thanks so much for the reply! Since you have too many doors, do you want to send some to VA? 🙂

      Good call on the airwalls! We have doors and, of course, they swing the wrong way. You can’t make this stuff up. I’ll have someone here on Monday to look at reversing the swing on the doors which seems like the cheapest possibility.…

      Ballroom capacity, egress doors, and code compliance

      Hi friends!

      We recently received notice from our campus fire safety officer that when our ballrooms are separated, there aren’t enough exits to allow more than 49 people. All of the individual slices of our two ballrooms are typically set for 100+.

      Our building is 30 years old. Locations of doors and ballrooms haven’t changed over those…

      Reply to New building/expansion move-in lessons?

      Thanks, great advice!

      The first hurdle for us was getting our new partners to understand what we have direct control over and what we have to “manage by influence.”

      I think we’re mostly there. Since all of our new neighbors are in Student Affairs (as we are), there’s a general understanding of what it means to be student-facing. Some people…
