Did you know that nearly 5 million people are treated annually for skin cancer, at a cost of more than $8 billion? And that skin cancer is the most common cancer in the U.S.—and most of it can be prevented?!
Here’s what the CDC recommends we do to protect ourselves from the damaging UV rays of the sun:
And what about those darn ticks we keep hearing so much about this year? There’s actually some debate about whether ticks are going to be more plentiful this year than in the past, but regardless, the best way to prevent Lyme disease and other tick-borne diseases is to avoid tick exposure. Here’s a link to an informative article that addresses how to avoid exposure in the months ahead: wiscontext.org/abcs-tick-season-wisconsin.
Summer is a great time of the year, and we’re fortunate to live in an area that affords us plenty of fun outdoor activities to take advantage of. With a little planning and the right skin protection, your summer can be both fun and safe.

If you are graduating this June the below information is for you. Technology Services wants to let you know that your Lawrence accounts (email, campus share and Office 365’s OneDrive) will close as of Thursday, Aug. 31. Your Voyager account will remain active, but you will need to access it differently. See the below information on how your accounts will be affected by your graduation from Lawrence.
Lawrence account changes:
Voyager access after graduation: Upon graduation, you will no longer be able to access Voyager with the username and password that you used as a student. The first time you access Voyager as an alum from off campus, you will need to create a new password for your Voyager account. Please refer to the instructions below to create your Alumni Voyager password.
Email: Your Lawrence email account will close with your graduation from Lawrence. If you desire to keep your Lawrence emails or contacts you will need to move them to another account. For instructions on how to move your email please see: Lawrence Email to your Personal Email Account. Also please notify your contacts of your new email address.
Files and Documents: Documents currently saved on Office 365-OneDrive or your personal network space will be deleted. If you want a copy of your documents you must copy or move them to your personal computer or some other storage device. NOTE: Documents saved on the Lawrence network (personal space or campus share) must be copied/moved while you are still on campus. It is your responsibility to make copies of any documents you wish to save before your account closes on Thursday, Aug. 31. Any data left on the network after Thursday, Aug. 31 will permanently be deleted.
Special Note to Student Teachers:
Student teacher accounts stay active through student teaching assignments. If you are registered for “student teaching” next year, your account will remain active for two weeks after your assignment end date.
Technology Services recognizes this is a busy time for you; please take the time to save your important data and move any emails you want to keep before Thursday, Aug. 31. If you have any questions, please contact the Helpdesk at 920-832-6570 or send email to helpdesk@lawrence.edu.
