If you would like to change your picture on the on-line faculty directory, please submit a picture to Laurie at <llmiller@gmu.edu>. The ELI owns both a video and a still digtial camera, so for those of you without digtial cameras, you are welcome to use those.

All faculty should still work to make or maintain at least a homepage with their contact information. If you would like to make an appointment with Laurie for help with hompage creation or updating, please contact her at <llmiller@gmu.edu> or 703-993-3654.

To see and share photos related to the ELI go to: < http://gmueli.snapfish.com >. You will need to register for a SnapFish account, but the registration is free.
