This week’s guide is all about setting the pace: how to send clear Outlook invites, how to add events from the RCC internal calendar and how to use scheduling to help you (and your group) stay on track. Inside...

Every good hike needs signposts—clear markers to help avoid veering off course. That’s exactly what templates do. Agenda templates help meetings start strong and stay on track, providing a clear path from beginning to end. Notes templates make it easy to capture key takeaways, decisions and action items without missing a step. No more guessing where to begin or how to wrap up. These branded,...
Using standardized tools for document templates, document naming convention/network nomenclature, Teams pages and Outlook appointments is a game-changer for organization and efficiency at all levels of the college.

Last week our Board of Education voted to approve placing a bond on the ballot this November. If this bond passes, it will be the single largest investment to support RCC’s mission in our college’s history. It will make uniform across our service district the current tax rate we have in Jackson County. If passed, bond funds will bring the college about $60 million and...
