Teams is coming!
IT and the office of student activities have “teamed up” to bring all LU clubs and organizations a new tool to manage your activities in a virtual world. In the coming weeks a Microsoft teams account will be created for every student club and organization. With this you will be able run Zoom-like meetings, manage your members, invite non-members and store documents. Leaders and contacts for all organizations will receive an e-mail once their account is set-up. IT is in the process of developing easy to follow instructions so all groups can get the most out of Teams.
John Rush in Concert Tonight!
Known as the “Human IPod”, John Rush will be performing for all Lawrentians tonight at 8 PM (virtual Zoom show). Join us for the show and best of all, YOU get to pick the songs. John has over 80 hours of music, so Zoom participants pick songs and he plays them on the spot. Fun, interactive and FREE.
