Faculty & Staff Resources

This information will help you navigate through the Psychology Department and UCCS campus in your role as an Instructor of Record.

All UCCS FACULTY and STAFF can use their own Adobe Sign user profiles for signing and creating .pdf documents.  If assistance is needed, please follow up with OIT.  LAS Staff has a quick training video that can be viewed here.

The guide, published by the Faculty Council Communications Committee, is a compilation of resources and policies that are relevant to faculty members at CU’s four campuses, regardless of their status (Tenure-Track, Tenured, or Non-Tenure-Track).

Please follow these guidelines if you wish to have a poster printed in the department.

1. Posters are printed on a 36” roll of paper. That limits one side of a poster to no more than 36” (i.e., 36”x48”, 36”x52”, 36”x36”, etc.). If you wish for both sides to be smaller than 36”, you will need to cut the poster down to size after it has been printed.
2. You are welcome to add color to enhance a poster (photographs, tables, figures, logos, etc.). However, you should not fill the background of a poster or textbox with color, especially a black or gradient background. This background color uses a lot of ink and sometimes causes the printer to run out of memory resulting in a poster with portions missing.
3. Refrain from using “Smart Art” in your poster. This too causes a depletion of memory resulting in a failed print job or a poster with portions missing.
4. Proofread posters before sending them to be printed. Once a poster is printed, it may not be printed again to make a change.
5. Ensure you email your poster (PPT or PDF format) to me no later than the Wednesday before you need the poster. I am only in the office on Wednesdays to print posters.

If these guidelines are not followed, a poster may be sent back to be modified before printing. Otherwise, if you must print outside of these guidelines, you can pay to have your poster printed from an outside source. Please contact David DuBois if you have any questions or concerns.
