The Office of Undergraduate Research & Creative Activities (URCA) is soliciting proposals from faculty members interested in mentoring a EURēCA! Student Assistant this Spring. EURēCA! Student Assistant is an introductory program that leverages federal-work study dollars and grant funds to provide entry-level salary support to undergraduates new to the research and creative enterprise. We are looking for faculty members who are passionate about mentorship and engaging students in their RCA activities. More information is available at their website, and the rolling application is available here.
Canvas Outage
Canvas access has been restored for our users, but the service reliability remains uncertain. Due to recent events, Canvas has had intermittent outages which are at the discretion of the vendor and may occur during a final exam. Faculty and staff may continue to use Canvas, but we strongly advise faculty and students to prepare a contingency plan for turning in assignments and final exams in the event Canvas access becomes unavailable again.
Instructure, the company that owns Canvas, has provided an FAQ about the incident, which may not answer all your questions. We will share more information if it becomes available.
