New Faculty

A Welcome to New Faculty from the Director

It is a real pleasure to welcome you to the UM faculty. There are twenty of you, and it is easy to see that you bring to our campus fresh perspectives and a wealth of new expertise. You come from all four colleges and represent many disciplines: Accounting, Art, Biology, Chemistry, Communication Studies, Dietetics, Elementary Education, English, Family and Consumer Sciences, Geography, Librarianship, Mathematics, Music, and Social Work. I look forward to meeting each of you personally at New Faculty Orientation, August 21.

New faculty are often eager to set up and begin using UM's electronic resources. This information will be covered at NFO. If you want to begin exploring those resources sooner, go to the Getting Started page. There you will find instructions for setting up your email account, configuring your iPhone to access your UM email and calendar, viewing a shared calendar in Outlook 2010, and more. You will also learn how to obtain a photo ID, order keys, and register your vehicle. 

Again, a warm welcome to you all. Do not hestitate to call me at 205.665.6504 if you have questions.
