Dates and Deadlines for New Department Members
GETTING STARTED
Employees | Getting Started | Dates | Calendar
This page lists all the dynamic information in the Getting Started pages, i.e., all information that definitely changes from year-to-year: dates, deadlines, and certain changing web addresses.
This page is not specific to a particular type of person getting started; instead, it combines all dates and deadlines into one place. The main purpose is to help us quickly identify, when preparing these pages for the upcoming academic year, which pieces of information might need to be updated.
