Changes to MyLutherNet
The Marcomm and OT teams have been working on cleaning up MyLutherNet to improve the user experience and reorganizing both MLN and Inside Luther so they work better together. This initiative is in response to user feedback, including a recent Pocket Survey in which many students indicated a desire to have a more navigable MLN, and to feedback from staff and faculty. The workgroup will work directly with department representatives on updates and changes and will report out with an update when the project is complete. If you have questions, please contact Laurel Forsgren (lforsgren001@luthersem.edu).
