Dear campus community,
Berkeley IT invites you to take our first campus-wide survey to help us better understand how well we are meeting your core technology service needs (e.g. Wi-Fi, online collaboration, helpdesk, etc.). Your input will be shared with technology governance committees and incorporated into planning and decision-making.
The survey takes less than 10 minutes. Twenty (20) participants will be randomly selected to win a $50 Amazon gift card. All responses will remain confidential.
As part of our continued efforts to expand and improve Wi-Fi services on campus, Berkeley IT is pleased to announce the availability of Wi-Fi 6E on campus. This technology was enabled on Monday, March 17, across all campus and campus housing locations, where available.
