Our Thai Connection

The InHouse headline reads "UNT signs agreement to provide doctoral training to faculty at Thai Rajabhat Universities" and the article goes on to quote Dr. Bataille stating  “I am grateful to Dr. Panu Sittiwong, who is deputy president for international affairs at Uttaradit Rajabhat University and a proud UNT alumnus, for driving the effort to connect UNT with Thailand in this way.”

Longtime members of the UNT community will remember Dr. Sittiwong from his days here as an ACS statistical consultant  (1984-1988) and then Manager of Research and Statistical Support (1988-1995). Dr. Philip Baczewski, Director of  Academic Computing and User Services, helped arrange initial visits between Uttaradit Rajabhat University administrators and UNT administrators.

Benchmarks Online Award Noted in InHouse

The following item appeared in a recent issue of InHouse, UNT's faculty/staff online newsletter:

The Association for Communications Technology Professionals in Higher Education has recognized UNT’s Benchmarks Online as a particularly effective online newsletter, communicating technical information in a timely, accessible manner.

“The school’s site was selected based on the criteria of content delivery, timeliness, ease of use, accessibility, and graphic appeal,” says Beth Chancellor, chair of the ACUTA Web Site Recognition Task Force.

Benchmarks Online is edited by Claudia Lynch, documentation services manager in academic computing and user services, computing and information technology center.

The page is featured on the ACUTA home page and it has been recognized in the July issue of ACUTA e-News. The newsletter will also be recognized at ACUTA’s annual conference in Florida July 29 – Aug. 2.

ACUTA serves nearly 800 institutions of higher education and 2,000 communications technology professionals in the U.S., Canada, Australia and New Zealand. ACUTA provides education and networking.
