Notice from IIT: A number of registrar, health services, human resources and advising forms have been transitioned to our new Document Management system, Etrieve. If you have historically approved a paper form for students or employees in these areas, you may start to receive emails that indicate a form is waiting your approval. This email will always arrive from viterbodms@viterbo.edu and will have a subject line that mentions Etrieve or Document Management. The body of the email will also include the name of the form and the person that submitted it.
Notice from the ASL Club: Students are invited to sign a statement asking for Viterbo to request that more ASL courses are available on campus. ASL courses could create a more inclusive environment for Viterbo's current and prospective students, and open doors to opportunities for personal growth, learning, and career paths for these students. If you believe having ASL courses here at Viterbo University would benefit its community, add your name at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/HYKLKF7. If you have any questions or would like to learn more about the club, email Josie McKenzie, president of ASL Club, at jmcken67921@viterbo.edu.
