Marist College's modified PolicePro 9 system for the Public Safety and Security department went live the first week of November. This is their third upgrade in nearly eight years since we started with them in January of 2000. We're currently in that period of working out bugs and procedural issues that always accompanies a significant upgrade, but already the grumbles are giving way to more pleasing feedback. We'll write some of it up here during the week, time permitting.

The growth of Marist over the past ten years or so has been remarkable. The place actually is as good looking as this great photograph from their website, taken from across the Hudson River. That nice structure at the lower right corner is the new boathouse along the recently reclaimed riverfront. The beautiful centerpiece, the new library, is at the center of the image.

You can't see the new football field in this picture, but it's lightyears ahead of what they had two years ago. There is a sort of design cohesiveness that has started to emerge on campus, ever since the construction of the student center several years ago kicked it off.
