Resources and Advisornews

Using the Advisernews Listserv

Purpose of Advisernews

The advisernews@iastate.edu listserv has been established to share information among faculty and staff that will enhance academic advising at Iowa State University. Any topics that would assist academic advisors in their support of student learning may be shared and discussed. All subscribers are expected to follow recognized procedures for "netiquette". Violators may be removed from the list at the list owner's discretion.

Join or Leave the List

Send an email to the owner of the listserv to ask to be added or removed. The owner is currently Heidi Ackerman (heidia).
