Scholarship Reminder
Remember to submit your application for a UW-Superior Foundation Distance Learning scholarship. Applications must be received by June 16th. The application form and criteria are online at http://www2.uwsuper.edu/cee/dlc/Academic_Fees/.
Learn@UW-Superior Upgrade
Learn@UW-Superior will be unavailable until Tuesday, May 27th due to a systemwide upgrade. When you return to your online courses, you'll find some changes in the look and location of some functions. Check the online Student Guide link on the login page if you need help in navigating the updated system.
Advisor Retirements
Most of you have heard that Barbara Doherty, Ron Harshman, and Sharon Lavine will be retiring in the next several months. Each of these dedicated advisors has worked with adult learners at UW-Superior for nearly 30 years. Please join me in thanking them for their service. If you'd like to share a memory or two, send me a note.
The process is well underway for hiring new advisors for the center. I'll let you know as these new advisors join us this summer.

Summer and Fall Enrollment is Underway
Last call for first summer session, and time to act for fall! If you haven't completed advising and registration, make your advising appointment today.
Check Your Summer Course Schedule
It's important to remember that Summer College courses don't all start on May 19th. Many courses start in June, and others in July. The start and end dates for each course are listed in the schedule. Make a note!
Learn@UW-Superior Outage
Learn@UW-Superior will be unavailable over the Memorial Day weekend for an important system upgrade. The outage will last from 8 PM Thursday, May 22nd through Tuesday, May 27th. Please plan your summer course activities around this outage. The scheduling is certainly inconvenient, but this time period was the preference of the majority of UW System campuses.
Congratulations to our Graduates!
Twenty-five of you will graduate Saturday - one of our largest groups in years. Those of you who will cross the stage can relax for a moment and reflect on your accomplishments. You've come a long way indeed.
Be sure to join us before the ceremony for the group photo at 1:10 PM. Look for the Distance Learning sign near the student lineup area.
