Electronic Communications at Earlham

Earlham Faculty Listserv (Faculty)

Mission

The Earlham Faculty Listserv provides a vehicle for sharing both official College messages and individual contributions with the Earlham faculty. Faculty become recipients of the Earlham Listserv upon their hiring, and membership is managed by the Academic Dean's administrative assistant. Access is also available to secretarial staff who request it or are specifically identified.

Content

Messages appropriate to the Earlham Listserv include:

• Notices from campus offices about calendar, deadlines, employment, policies, hours, procedures
• Announcements of new weekly issues of Around The Heart
• Health and Safety Announcements
• Governance agenda items or brief reports from campus governance committees
• Issues of College business: e.g., faculty meeting or employee council business; curriculum, campus life, governance, institutional policies
• Around The Heart Daily
• Requests to review documents or provide feedback
• Faculty meeting agenda and related business
• Notices of accidents, serious illness and death in compliance with privacy rules

Note: Topics appropriate for the Earlham Miscellany Listserv are not appropriate here.

Distribution

Faculty are automatically subscribed to the list and staff may be subscribed at their choice.

Submissions

Members of the listserv can send messages to the listserv. Messages from others are approved for posting by the Clerk of the Faculty who serves as Moderator.

Note: Sending a message to all three listservs does not improve the message's reach; it only causes needless duplication. Because faculty and staff may unsubscribe to the Earlham Miscel Listserv, it is best to send messages intended for all faculty to the Faculty Listserv and those intended for all staff to the Staff Listserv.
