InCommon Federation Discussions About Online Student Services

[Ann West <>]

Dear Anne,

Many thanks for your quick response. We can all appreciate the work ahead
and the need to be focused on the critical task at hand.

And a continued thanks for Penn State's current participation in the
project by providing technical guidance, support and infrastructure in the
form of your central person registry.  As you know, Penn State is doing
yeoman's work in the identity area and has already had national impact on
how universities think about the interdependence of identity, business
systems and service delivery. It has been great to work with your folks on
bringing up the pilot service and look forward to working together in the
admissions area when the time comes.

If you'd like to be kept informed, may I add you to the InCommon Student
list? We will be having quarterly status calls for those schools not
participating in the pilot.

Best wishes for a smooth transition to a new student system,

Ann
