ACUHO-I Rolls Out New E-Mail System
We all know that we get a lot of e-mail. We also know that we like to stay connected. ACUHO-I is helping you address both of those issues with a new e-mail system that you can control via your profile in the ACUHO-I member directory. In the past, ACUHO-I’s e-mail system operated on an allor-nothing basis. Now, however, ACUHO-I has divided its e-mail messages into six categories: News and Information; Professional Development; digital Talking Stick; digital Journal of College and University Student Housing; ACUHO-I Foundation; and the Connections weekly e-mail newsletter. This will allow members to choose which types of informational e-mails they would like to receive, while filtering out others. The categories are straightforward. News and Information will address association and profession happenings while Professional Development will cover conferences, webinars, etc. Signing up to receive notices about the digital Talking Stick and Journal will act as your “subscription” to these online services. The Connections newsletter delivers a variety of information each Tuesday. And ACUHO-I Foundation will keep you informed of developments within that organization. Please note that there will remain times when ACUHO-I must send out administrative or operational e-mails for occasions such as board elections, business transactions, membership notices, and the like. It is not possible to opt-out of these messages. Log in to the member directory (http://bit.ly/acuhoi_ directory) and check the desired boxes within your profile to sign up for these messages. Remember, your username is the same as your campus e-mail address. If you do not remember your password, directions for retrieving it are online in the directory as well.
