Run the Eduroam Setup Utility Now – Avoid Losing Connectivity Thursday 12/12
To avoid losing wireless connectivity on Thursday, December 12, you need to run the Eduroam setup utility on your laptop, smartphone, and/or tablet. The security certificate for Eduroam wireless will change, and the Eduroam setup utility is the most reliable way to configure the new certificate on your device.
To maintain access to the eduroam network, follow these steps:
Open a browser from an existing network (eduroam, ND-Guest, wired, home, etc.)
Download the eduroam utility at eduroam.nd.edu
Follow the instructions to run the eduroam utility
For additional details, go to this knowledgebase article.
Repeat these steps for all of your devices (laptops, smartphones, and tablets)
If you do not run the utility before December 12, your devices may no longer connect to the eduroam network. Note: Many IT services are not accessible when connected to ND-Guest, including Banner, Remote Apps, CorpFS, SharePoint, GLez, PeopleEZ, Business Objects, and others. To restore access to the eduroam network after December 12, follow the steps above.
If you have any questions, please contact your departmental IT support staff, or the OIT Help Desk at 574-631-8111, oithelp@nd.edu or chat online at: https://help.nd.edu.

Welcome Joanne Norell to NDAA
I am excited to share that Joanne Norell will be joining the Alumni Association on January 6 as our Writer/Editor. Joanne has worked in athletics at the University since 2014, where she has managed communications and media relations for a number of Fighting Irish teams, including women’s soccer, tennis, fencing, cross country, and track & field. Most recently, she has served as Senior Editor, Athletics Communications, directing writing efforts for Fighting Irish Media and UND.com, and serving as editor-in-chief of the gameday magazine produced for each home football game, among other responsibilities.
Joanne graduated from Purdue in 2011 and received a master’s degree from Georgetown in 2013. While studying in D.C., she interned with the Washington Nationals, so she may still be celebrating their improbable World Series title!
In her new role, Joanne will oversee our monthly Echoes e-newsletter and our We Are ND storytelling website, in addition to serving as our lead marketing copywriter for our numerous digital and print projects. She will also partner with Notre Dame Magazine to oversee quarterly class notes.
Please join me in welcoming Joanne to the team!
Best,
Josh Flynt

Best Wishes to Ian Montijo
Dear Colleagues,
It is with mixed emotions that I announce that Ian Montijo will be leaving the Philanthropic Strategy team effective January 10, 2020 to pursue a new opportunity working in a counterterrorism network analysis role in the Washington D.C. area.
During Ian’s tenure in Development, he has been an instrumental partner and leader in defining and
implementing standards and processes for our revamped prospect research team. We will most
certainly miss the professionalism, integrity, and hunger for continuous improvement that Ian
demonstrated on a daily basis.
Please join me in congratulating Ian on his new position and thanking him for his many contributions to our department.
We will post Ian’s role in the coming days. If you are interested in the position or know of someone we should consider for the role, please let me know.
