We’d like to welcome Washington University in St. Louis to the clearTXT family. The University selected clearTXT for its information delivery and mobile messaging needs. In case you’re not familiar with this highly respected school, here’s a little information from their website…
“The University is counted among the world’s leaders in teaching and research, and draws students and faculty to St. Louis from all 50 states and more than 120 nations. The University is highly regarded for its commitment to excellence in learning. Its programs, administration, facilities, resources, and activities combine to further its mission of teaching, research, and service to society.”
We look forward to working with Bill Orrick and the other great folks at Washington University in St. Louis.
Our partner, Microsoft, just published a case study about the ways in which the University of Cincinnati increases information access and quality of life for its students, teachers, and staff. The University of Cincinnati is one of the most progressive schools in the country, and this case does a nice job of illustrating that fact. clearTXT is a central part of their mobile initiative and is highlighted in the case study.
Please take a moment to read the case study and forward it to colleagues. The case study is located at: http://www.microsoft.com/casestudies/casestudy.aspx?casestudyid=201333

Attendees at Bb World ’07 will be able to receive reminders, updates, schedule changes, news, and other information during the conference right on their mobile phones.
This will be our second time providing this service at a Blackboard conference. The first time we provided it was at the 2005 Bb User Conference in Baltimore, MD. The service was well received and we’re excited to offer the service again.
Blackboard is really behind the service now and will help promote it to attendees. We’ll be working closely with Blackboard to make sure attendees have a great experience and the most current information during the conference. Stay tuned for additional information and updates.
