Technology Improvements
  • The launching of the Fordham University portal was the largest technological improvement in Fordham IT. With a single sign-on (username/password) into the portal, students/faculty/staff can access different services available to the user. No more going to different websites to access various information. Moving the email system to Gmail was another change. Fordham IT no longer has to maintain large amount of hardware and storage to host the email system. Those resources can be redirected to other us
