Student clubs and teams will also be encouraged to set up their calendars this way. A built-in calendar management page will help users select events from the maze of Harvard happenings. Synchronization with popular appointment calendars and palmtops is also being explored. It also identifies undergraduates' academic concentrations and the dormitories or houses in which they reside. The initial view of each portal is tailored to this profile.
Users can add to and adjust what they see.
Naturally, information such as student schedules and grades and faculty course data remain restricted. Portal configurations are saved on central systems and allow the portal to be viewed from any machine on the Web with the aid of secure PINs.
