Relay for Life Fundraiser a Success – The Roosevelt County Relay For Life’s Art Auction fundraiser was a success due to support from several local artists, banking institutions, and art patrons. Nine local artists, Marilyn Rigsby of Investments Out West, Phillip Million, Doris Fleming, LaWanda Calton, Jula May, Betsy Freeman, Shirley Ford, Tim McGee, and Lois Fox, donated art pieces to Relay For Life for the fundraiser. Roosevelt County banking institutions, Access Bank, Portales National Bank, and Wells Fargo, provided display space for the art pieces during the auction. Many art patrons participated to bid on the pieces provided by the artists. The Roosevelt County Relay For Life was able to raise nearly $1,800 to aid in the fight against cancer. The Art Auction was the first fundraiser leading up to the Relay For Life event being held April 22-23.

What Is Relay for Life?
Relay For Life is the American Cancer Society's (www.cancer.org) signature activity. It offers everyone in the community a chance to participate in the fight against cancer. Teams of people camp out at the Eastern New Mexico University Greyhound Arena and take turns walking or running around the court. Each team is asked to have a representative on the track at all times during the event. Relay For Life is an overnight event, up to 24 hours in length.

Join the Fight Against Cancer
Because Relay For Life is a community gathering rather than an athletic event, anyone and everyone can participate. Currently, there are a number of teams participating from Eastern New Mexico University, including the College of Business lead by Rebecca Cree, Communications Department lead by Patti Dobson, and the Music Department lead by Jean Wozencraft-Ornellas.

If you are interested in joining a team or starting your own Relay For Life team, contact team recruitment chair Janeice Scarbrough at 359.1013 or e-mail Janeice.Scarbrough@enmu.edu. For more information about Relay For Life events, contact Mandi Park at (home) 356.8180, (work) 562.2166 or e-mail Mandi.Park@enmu.edu. – Sun Vega

TechTips – Helpful Hints for using ENMU Technology (courtesy of ITS Computing)

Computing
Excel series – Don't Lose Sight of Your Row and Column Labels
Don’t you hate when you are working in Excel and you lose sight of all the other cells. You may not be aware that Excel has a function that lets you freeze these headings in place.

Here is a SOLUTION: Click on a Cell. Go into the Window menu at the top of your
screen and select Freeze Panes. This command freezes every row above the selected cell and every column to the left of it.

UNFREEZE THE PANES: Go back to the Window menu and select "Unfreeze Panes"

Powerpoint series – A Different Background
If you would like a different look for one or more slides in a slide show, you can omit the master background chosen for your presentation. First navigate to the slide you would like to change. Then click on Format | Slide Background, check the box that says Omit background graphics from master, and hit Apply. To choose multiple slides at once, go to the View menu and click on Slide Sorter. Then hold down the Ctrl key and click on the slides you would like to modify. You can then go to the Format menu and repeat the steps to omit the background, as above.

DAT file version update – To check that your computer is up-to-date with the most current versions of virusscan software, locate the blue and white shield with a red “V” in it by your system clock on the bottom right side of your screen and click on it with the right mouse button. Then choose “About VirusScan Enterprise” in the pull-down box. There are two things to look for; one is the “Virus Definitions” which should be at 4439 and the other is the “Scan Engine” which should be at 4.4.00 (4400).
