March 2007 Daylight Saving Time Reminder
To: All Rice Faculty, Staff, and Students
RE: Final Daylight Saving Time Reminder
Daylight Saving Time (DST) begins in two days, and Information Technology (IT) has applied the DST patches and upgrades to IT-supported campus systems and applications.
Please consider these two final reminders regarding personal calendar updates and independently administered machines.
The DST upgrades applied by IT were for IT-supported computers, systems and applications. The computers, servers and applications across the campus which are administered independently can only be upgraded by their administrators.
For personal calendars, check each appointment in the last three weeks of March to make sure the time is accurate. IT staff members have read comments from other universities that Outlook in particular seems to be having a problem with the DST upgrades. One suggestion from the Educause CIO-mailing list is to put the time of all invitations and events in the subject line and body of messages.
