from Sarah Freeman, Director of Communications, Grady College (03/17/2020) :
Good afternoon, Faculty and Staff — the campus communicators (StratComm) had a conference call this morning where several online campus resources were shared. While I am sure most of you have heard about some of these, there may be others you have not heard about so I thought I would share the list:
- Main UGA Coronavirus Website (UGA’s most authoritative website; updated regularly and includes links to other resources, FAQ, directory of all Arch New announcements, etc.)
- Research Operations during COVID-19 (extensive Q&A about research-related issues)
- OVPI Teaching and Learning Continuity resources (includes links to CTL guide for teaching during disruptions and other online resources)
- Online Learning resources: Rapid Guide to Online Teaching (needs access through ELC) and a place to register with Instructional Designers
- UGA Libraries (includes place where faculty can request articles to be scanned or streamed, as well as place they can request e-books)
Critical UGA IT Services for Business Continuity
Normal University business and classes can be disrupted by events and unforeseen circumstances such as weather, natural disasters, or health concerns. In many cases, faculty and staff may continue to teach and conduct business remotely using technology resources available to everyone at UGA.
Here are some of the tools EITS offers to assist students, faculty and staff in teaching, learning, collaborating and communicating remotely when meeting on campus is not an option: BlackBoard Collaborate Kaltura Zoom vLab Microsoft Office 365 Athena and DegreeWorks Remote Access VPN ArchPass OneSource Systems

How to set up Remote Desktop access
You can access your work PC remotely. Just make sure that you leave your computer on and you have turned off any power saving features, as it will not wake up from sleep.
If you have a Mac at home you will need Microsoft Remote Desktop from the App Store. Remote Desktop is built into Windows. You will also need to know your computer name, which can be found by right clicking on Computer in the start menu and viewing the computer name there.
On your home computer:
- Connect to the Cisco VPN
- Open Remote Desktop and put in computer name/address –
- GC-******.msmyid.uga.edu, where ****** is the 6 digit UGA Property Control number for your computer
- Username is MYID\*yourmyid* and password.
You should then connect fine.
