A Message to Students

Champion figure skaters who train at the University of Delaware aren't afraid of the "C" word ­ commitment. To achieve their goals, they pledge total commitment to their training, their partners, their fellow team members and to each performance.

The University of Delaware is committed to helping you achieve your individual educational goals. As your commitment to learning takes shape, a winning educational experience will result from your enthusiasm, your energy and your desire for knowledge.

As with all winning partnerships, the University of Delaware's commitment to students takes many forms. We're dedicated to providing an open atmosphere of inquiry where all individuals can pursue their quests for knowledge. That commitment includes a nationally renowned faculty, continuing enhancements to the living and learning environment and award-winning access to the information superhighway.

From electronic mailboxes to on-line library resources, the University offers the latest in information technologies, making the business of getting an education more efficient and more pleasant for today's students. The UD Student Services Building, for instance, provides "one-stop shopping" in a facility that has become a model for other institutions of higher learning. Students can register for classes, pay fees, apply for financial aid, obtain an I.D. card and purchase a parking permit­all at one location.

Other innovations include SIS-PLUS, the University's computerized student information system, which lets you review schedules, transcripts and billing status from any terminal on campus, or from your residence hall room. By pressing a few keys on a Touch-Tone telephone, students can retrieve voice-mail messages, check grades, renew library books or complete course registration. Thanks to network access in residence halls, students are part of the campus computing system and have cable television access, too.

Together, we share a commitment to make your educational experience at the University of Delaware the best it can be. The University has a long and distinguished history, and we look to our students­and our future alumni­to carry this tradition of excellence forward into the future.

Sincerely,

David P. Roselle

President
