RSS Streams: Your Kogod Information Source for 2005-2006; Win Eagle Bucks and T-Mobile products
This fall, the Kogod School of Business is changing the way it communicates with students. Important announcements and information from the Dean's Office, from Graduate Programs, from the Graduate Business Association and graduate clubs, and from your professors will be communicated via RSS streams to your desktop, laptop and Blackberry. If you want to have the latest new on job opportunities, speakers, social events, club events, breaking business news, etc, you need to read the Kogod streams.
To receive streams on your computer, go to the Kogod website and click the "RSS Streams" link on the Graphic of the Blackberry 7100t on the right hand side of the Kogod website. Then click on the link to download the Kogod RSS Reader that is appropriate for your computer. Please note that you will need to have WinZip software loaded on your computer to receive the Kogod RSS reader file which can be downloaded from AU e-operations via my.american.edu.
The Kogod RSS Reader is already loaded on the T-Mobile 7100t Blackberrys that we distributed. The reader can be found by clicking the applications toolbox on the main screen.
Prizes: We will be awarding a $200 Eagle Bucks prize for a Blackberry 7100t Kogod stream user and $100 Eagle Bucks prize for any Kogod stream user. Other winners will receive gifts from T-Mobile. To learn how to enter the drawing for these prizes and gifts you must visit the "GBA/Club News and Events" stream or the "Kogod Hotspot Launch" stream for details. While you are visiting those streams, please visit the other Kogod streams. Good Luck and Happy Streaming!
