About ASSIST-L Web

ASSIST-L is an electronic mailing list that provides a forum for users throughout the state to discuss ASSIST-related issues and receive information about ASSIST activities.

To receive messages from ASSIST-L, you must first subscribe to the list. (You will find instructions for subscribing and unsubscribing below this introduction.)

When someone sends a message using ASSIST-L, the message is sent to all subscribers. If you want to send a personal message to one of the ASSIST-L subscribers, do not send the message through ASSIST-L since all subscribers will receive the message. Also, if you want to reply only to the one person who created a message, rather than all subscribers, do not use your e-mail software's Reply option to respond to the message. If the original message was sent to all subscribers through ASSIST-L, the reply is also sent to all subscribers through ASSIST-L.

ASSIST-L is the primary method used by the ASSIST Coordination Site for communicating with campuses about ASSIST activities. Each campus should make sure that the ASSIST manager, data contact, and technical support staff have subscribed to ASSIST-L.
