The university is transitioning all campus email to Microsoft Live @ Edu from its current server system, providing benefits like increased storage and improved performance. The migration is expected to start for faculty the third week of September 2011, with options for earlier opt-in during the summer. Training sessions will be available to assist with the transition, and archived local emails may require additional action.
