The Microsoft Corporation has given nearly $1 million in software (estimated retail value) and technical assistance to support the e-commerce and management information systems (MIS) programs in Temple’s Fox School of Business and Management. Through the gift, Temple will receive copies of Microsoft’s Windows 2000 Server, Exchange 2000, Visual Studio 6.0, and Office 2000 Developer Edition, plus more. The software will be used in the Fox School’s computer labs and will be used in new e-business labs that will go into operation this spring.

Corrections from last week

The article, “Banning the video,” was written by Tanitha Kulsiri who is the Opinion Editor, not a staff writer.

The last person in Temple Talk was misidentified. Her name is Alinda Ruhinda, not Russell Johnson.

Lauren Dobkin, not Anthony Gilbert, took the back cover photo. The photo was of Temple vs. Dayton, not Florida.
