Emory Says Video Interviews Add Valuable Information to Decision Process

Emory University Laney Graduate School in Atlanta, Georgia, is now using the Admit Video Interview tool to screen applicants for in-person interviews.  This Web-based service from CollegeNET makes it possible for all applicants to be seen and heard, even when an in-person interview isn’t possible. Interviews can be recorded and reviewed anytime, without appointments or student travel.  Video Interview saves scheduling time and minimizes losses due to missed interview appointments.

“Video Interview gives us valuable information about applicants that can’t be captured in an application.  It’s especially useful for international students, who don’t have the option of in-person interviews.” -- Ulf Nilsson, Assistant Dean of Operations, Laney Graduate School, Emory University

Lane Community College Uses a Single Web-based System to Manage Event Scheduling, Resources and Automated Lighting

Lane Community College in Eugene, Oregon, has had great success reducing energy use and costs by integrating their timed lighting system with their online scheduling system. Lane worked with its lighting vendor to integrate the school’s stadium and athletic field lighting with its 25Live® Web-based scheduling system. Lane’s event schedulers can now set timed lighting schedules, along with event space and equipment, all at one time and in one system. This saves labor, in addition to energy costs. And, in Lane’s case, it also helped boost revenue by allowing the school to host – and charge for – events for outside organizations.

“By building lighting scheduling into 25Live, we’ve eliminated double entry scheduling and increased energy efficiency without having to purchase new equipment.” 

-- Alen Bahret, IT Programmer/Analyst, Lane Community College
