Outlook Tip: Add Academic dates to your EM calendar

If you'd like to add some of the important dates like the start and end of quarters to your EM calendar send an email to psychnet@psych.ucla.edu requesting the "UCLA Academic Calendar.ics" file and follow these instructions:

1. Right click the attached “UCLA Academic Calendar.ics" document and save it to your desktop or “My Documents” and then close this message.
2. In Outlook Menu Bar click on File and choose Import and Export. 
3. From "Choose an action to perform" select "Import an iCalendar or vCalendar file (.vcs)" and click on Next. 
4. In "look in" choose desktop or My Documents folder and select "UCLA Academic Calendar.ics" and click OK. 

 Do this only once or you will have multiple entries for each item. If you don't see the events on your calendar right away try rebooting your computer. If the events still don't appear, please call our help desk: 49327

Online Polling

The UCLA online polling tool is now available for faculty and staff use. You may have seen the tool in action today at the Fall Reception. Polls can be accessed from many different mobile devices and in some cases, may take the place of "clickers" in the classroom. Polls may be made public or private but must be created and managed by a UCLA faculty or staff member. If you are interested in using this service please contact Dawn Canfield (dawnc@psych.ucla.edu)
