Center for Law and Computers Welcomes New Executive Director We are pleased to announce that Charles Wheeles will be joining our team as Executive Director of the Center for Law and Computers. In his new role, Chuck will be the operational manager of the staff of the Center. He will work with Ron Staudt, Vice-President, Law, Business and Technology, Richard Warner, Director of Faculty Development and the Dean to build the vision for the use of computing, network and internet technology to support the mission of Chicago-Kent College of Law and then make that vision a reality. Chuck has a Masters in Engineering Management from Northwestern University, BA in Business and Computer Science from Northeastern Illinois. He served as a technical supervisor at Loyola University from 1981 until 1995. After leaving Loyola he held a variety of positions in industry and consulting organizations including automation assignments at Sidley & Austin and Jenner & Block.
Regular general maintenance of the network is necessary to ensure greater performance, both in terms of speed and the prevention of any serious problems. To achieve these goals, the Center for Law and Computers will periodically take down the network to perform this maintenance. We've scheduled the maintenance on a monthly basis, for only 1.5 hours on days and at times to inconvenience the least amount of users. Here are the dates that we will be taking the network down. On these days, the network will not be available between 5:30am and 7:00am. Tuesday November 2, 1999 December 7, 1999 January 4, 2000 February 1, 2000
