LEGISLATIVE BRIEF
Friday, January 21
Via campus mail, all staff will receive a copy of the 2005 SCC Legislative Overview. This information will be shared with our local legislators in Olympia so that they can make informed decisions during this upcoming session. The key message for legislators is to remind them of the unique role that community colleges play in our higher education system, the need to fund the Allied Health Sciences Building, the need for staff and faculty salary increases, and the continuing demand to increase the funding for enrollment. Please take a moment to review this information and share it with others who you might talk to. If you have questions, please contact Judy Yu x. 4634.

RECENT E-MAIL/NETWORK PROBLEMS
TSS staff have isolated the recent problems with e-mail and local network access to undocumented incompatibilities between a Microsoft security patch and our anti-virus software.

The incompatibles caused a number of servers to randomly hang. TSS has disabled the antivirus software on the authentication servers pending the release of updated vendor patches.
