CC Needs Your Help!

Dear CC Community,

As part of a campus-wide planning effort, CC would like your help in understanding collaboration across campus and beyond. The goal of this effort is to uncover broad patterns of collaboration to better inform program spatial proximity, collaboration centers, and space utilization.

What is the Collaboration Survey?

An online survey that maps internal and external collaborations at CC.

What data are we requesting and how will we use it?

We’re requesting your department(s), primary location on campus, groups that you collaborate with, and what types of spaces support that collaboration. We will use the data to map clusters of connections on campus and beyond. Survey responses are anonymous.

How do I take the survey?

Just click this link to get started! The survey typically takes no more than 5-10 minutes to complete. Participation from a broad range of the campus community is critical to the success of our planning efforts. 

We will be collecting responses from Wednesday, March 27-Friday, April 5.

Thank you in advance for your participation.

Sincerely, 

Amber Brannigan

Associate Vice President, Campus Operations & Facilities Services

A Test of the Emergency Notification System
Campus Safety will conduct a test of the Rave Emergency Notification System some time during the week of April 1. This system is used to notify the campus community of any unsafe conditions on campus using the Standard Response Protocol. All CC students, faculty, and staff are automatically enrolled in the emergency notification system using their CC email. To receive notifications via text or voice to your mobile phone, you must register the number. If you have not registered your mobile phone number, notifications will only be received via your desk phone and your CC email address.

If you do not receive the test during the week of April 1, please opt in by texting CCSafe to 226787 (Campus).
All students are encouraged to download the free companion app, Rave Guardian for mobile phones. Rave Guardian expands the platform of services to include Safe Walk and real time texting with Campus Safety.

With Safe Walk, once you’ve downloaded Rave Guardian to your mobile phone, you can invite friends and family to join your network as “guardians,” even if they don’t have the Rave Guardian app installed on their phone. You can invite guardians to virtually join you during a timed session, such as a walk home late at night or a trip to a new area. Here’s how it works:

  • Select anyone from your phone’s contact list to be your guardian(s) to join you virtually during a timed trip.
  • Add a note explaining to your guardian(s) where you’re going.
  • Set the timer for how long you think your trip will take.
  • Hit “Start Timer” button, and Rave Guardian will automatically invite your selected guardian(s) and start counting down the trip.
  • During the timed trip, Rave Guardian will share your approximate location and route with your appointed guardian(s). Remember, ONLY the guardian(s) you choose for the trip can see this data.
  • If you discover the time for the trip has changed, use the “Add 1 Minute” or “Subtract 1 Minute” buttons to adjust your time.
  • Deactivate the timer when you arrive safely at your destination. If you don’t deactivate the timer, Rave Guardian automatically messages your guardian(s) when it expires.

Please note, Rave Guardian location information is only enabled when you choose to make an emergency call, send a tip, or when your safety timer expires, alerting your guardian(s) to your location. You share your location on your terms, either sharing your location once or with streaming capabilities.

Question: How can I make my application more compelling for professional and educational opportunities? 

These tips can make applying for opportunities more productive in the long run. Understanding your audience, and tailoring your application to the needs and values of the opportunity or organization is important for cultivating a strong application for any professional or educational opportunity. Here are some ways to help you get started:

In case you missed our last email (linked here – it has all the details!), each year 550 eager beavers join the CC student ranks, and NSO Priddy Leaders are CRUCIAL to making orientation for these students a success. Leaders help introduce incoming first year and transfer students to CC and the surrounding community while earning between $575-$875, having a blast, engaging in a giant water fight, making new besties – the list goes on.  

If you are interested in the position and want to know more, please join us at an NSO Priddy Leader info session tomorrow (Wed) at 4pm in the Tutt Library Tim Fuller Event Space (room 201). Rachael Abler, who oversees all things Priddy for Outdoor Education, will be there to give you a brief overview of what NSO and the Priddy Experience will look like for leaders and can answer any questions you may have about the role.   


As always, please do not hesitate to reach out.  

Kindest regards,
