From: "Dr. Myron Anderson" <VPIE(a)utsa.edu> Date: Thursday, February 21, 2019 at 2:32 PM To: UTSA Faculty and Staff - ALL <utsafacultyandstaffall(a)utsa.edu> Subject: Steps toward inclusive excellence View this email as a web page.<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.utsa...> [Image removed by sender. UTSA Inclusive Excellence]<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.utsa...> Dear Roadrunner Community, Since arriving at UTSA last month I have spent much of my time on a listening tour, visiting with a broad cross-section of faculty, staff and students. I’ve already learned so much about this extraordinary institution and the opportunities before us. I’ve also had the chance to review the results of both the faculty/staff<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fprovost....> and student <https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fprovost....> diversity surveys conducted by the Provost’s Diversity and Inclusion Advisory Council last year. The surveys provided a very helpful first step to understanding where we are succeeding as an institution, and where we have more work to do. Overall, I believe they point to the many benefits that will come from efforts to increase our collective cultural intelligence as a learning community. Next week President Eighmy will officially announce a new President’s Initiative on Inclusive Excellence, which will provide a framework for our first steps. It will include future planning for a comprehensive campus climate survey that will allow us to gather information on multiple dimensions within the inclusive excellence spectrum, as well as measure our progress with peer universities in a systemic way. Understanding how we’re doing in a quantitative sense is important, but just as important is hearing from the many individual voices that make up the fabric of this community. As such, I’m happy to announce my first round of small group dialogue sessions for faculty and staff. If you have thoughts, experiences or ideas on the topic of inclusive excellence at UTSA, I hope you will consider signing up for one of these casual discussions. Each will be limited to 25 participants. If they prove to be popular, I will offer more of these in the months to come. Session #1 Wednesday, March 27, 9-10 a.m. Anaqua Room, SU 2.03.08 - Main Campus Session #2 Tuesday, April 9, 9-10 a.m. El Paseo Room, DB 1.120 - Downtown Campus Session #3 Wednesday, April 17, 10-11 a.m. Mesquite Room, SU 2.01.24 - Main Campus SIGN UP FOR A SESSION<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Futsapre...> As mentioned in the recent message from me, President Eighmy and Provost Espy<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.utsa...>, my role here at UTSA is to work with the entire Roadrunner community to create a welcoming campus for all. I am looking forward to meeting more of you and walking down this path together.

DegreeWorks: IP Course to Replace D

by advising＠lists.it.utsa.edu

Hello all, We have changed a setting that seems to have solved the problem where an IP course that is being taken to replace a D for a C- or better requirement, falls in to Insufficient rather than pulling in to degree plan. If anything looks weird, please shoot an email with the student ID and the problem to DegreeWorks(a)utsa.edu<mailto:DegreeWorks@utsa.edu>. Regards, Amanda Garcia Program Coordinator Advising Administration University of Texas at San Antonio 210-458-6519

DegreeWorks Pre-Requisites

by advising＠lists.it.utsa.edu

Hello all, A decision has been made to go back to having pre-reqs checked in Banner rather than DegreeWorks. In the future, it will eventually go back to DW but it will be turned off for sure for Summer 2019 and Fall 2019 registration periods. This means the planner will no longer give you a warning if a course is in place without a student meeting the pre-req. We will let you know when everything has switched (it will be before registration opens) and keep you updated with any news we hear as to when DW pre-req checking will be turned back on. If you have any questions, please email us at DegreeWorks(a)utsa.edu. Regards, Amanda Garcia Program Coordinator Advising Administration University of Texas at San Antonio 210-458-6519

If you are unable to participate in a service project, please join us at the kickoff to greet and send off service participants. A great university like UTSA depends on a great city, which is why we are so passionate about our Day of Service and the collective volunteer impact of the Roadrunner Nation. We enjoyed working side-by-side with so many Roadrunners last year, and can't wait to do so again on March 2 - see you there!
