The SCCList and Important Phone Numbers at Your Campus

by Sarah Kain Gutowski, Chair, FA New Member Program

By now you will have all received the official class cancellation from Mary Lou Araneo for Tuesday and Wednesday's classes. Some of you, if you're on the SCCList, will have been up-to-date on the reason why (Snowpocalypse '15!!) because of Professor Scott Mandia's useful updates regarding the impending inclement weather.

And some of you may be scratching your head right now, thinking, "SCCList?"

The SCCList is the official listserv for Suffolk through which its members may communicate unofficially . . . that is to say, it's a little more casual and democratic -- any member can post and use the listserv to speak to the SCCC Community at large. It's a place where you can discuss anything to do with Suffolk, from its internal policies to pedagogical issues. Or, you know, the weather.

If your email hasn't been made part of the SCCC distribution list already, you may want to sign up to be included. To subscribe to the SCCList, go to http://depthome.sunysuffolk.edu/Library/staff/scclist.asp. Once in a while you'll find a flurry of messages in your inbox via the listserv, but on the whole it's worth the storage space in your email account to be kept in the loop.

Also, with so much recent stress on where-to-go for information, I thought that this would be an opportune time to share some important campus numbers with you: those of The FA Office, Security, Health Services, Counseling, and Payroll. You might want to print this email out and post it on a wall somewhere near your office phone, or maybe even carry a copy with you to class if you’re teaching faculty -- sometimes, sadly or oddly enough, you need Security and/or the assistance of Health Services while you’re teaching class. (It doesn’t happen often, but it does happen  -- sometimes students try to attend class when they’re just too ill to make it through. And sometimes they faint, which is when you should call Health Services.)
