You may have seen this on the OneTech Campus Announcements and you should also receive this as an email, but I thought I'd post it here anyway.

Arkansas Tech is in the process of preparing for a major upgrade of the OneTech Portal as you were recently notified. This upgrade to the next version of the OneTech Portal is in support of our Unified Digital Campus initiative and it is required to move forward with upgrades to other systems connected to the OneTech Portal.  

 

In the previous announcement we stated that the OneTech Portal upgrade would include integration with Google Apps; a set of services provided by Google and including Gmail accounts rather than the university email currently in use.  In the interest of maintaining the highest possible level of security for our email accounts, we have decided against integrating with Google Apps and Google Mail at this time.  Your Tech email account will continue to be the official email account for the university to correspond with you.

 

Most of the services provided through Google Apps are available to you as a free resource and you may choose to sign up independently.  If you wish to find out more about  the available Google Apps, including free word processing, spreadsheets, calendar, talk, etc., you can find information at  http://www.google.com/intl/en/options/.

We are still planning to upgrade the OneTech Portal sometime during the week of May 25th. We will announce an exact date and outage duration when we get closer to our go-live date.

If you have questions or concerns, feel free to contact the Campus Support Center at 479.968.0646 or tech.support@atu.edu

 

 

Sincerely,

Computer Services
Arkansas Tech University
