Listservs & Sites
What is a listserv?
A listserv is an email list that contains several people (subscribers). Every time someone wants to email that group of people, they send an email to a specific address (the listserv address) and the message goes out to only those subscribed to the listserv.
The School of Sustainability uses several listervs. Below is a description of each one.
SOSGrad@asu.edu
Purpose: "business" email for the department's grad student population.
Subscription: Required while you're in the program
Anyone can send a message out to the SOS grad community by emailing SOSGrad@asu.edu. Each message will be reviewed by the moderator before it's approved. If not approved, the sender will receive feedback on what to do to get the message out.
Please be aware: SOSGrad@asu.edu is the listserv email; SOSGradAdvising@asu.edu is the preferred email address to use to contact SOS graduate advising (instead of the coordinator's direct email).
SOSPhD@asu.edu
Subscription: Required for all current SOS PhD students.
Sometimes we have messages about courses, training opportunities or jobs directly aimed at just the PhD students or PhD candidates. To limit the number of emails that go out to the general listserv, we created this one when we need to send PhD-only messages. Not many get sent to that list, so please don't feel like you're missing out if you're not a PhD student.
DrSOS@asu.edu
Subscription: Optional list focused mostly on job ads for any current SOS student or alumnus. Please email SOSGradAdvising@asu.edu if you would like to subscribe to this listserv. It's most appropriate for PhD students and anyone who wants to work in academia.
We post non-academic jobs in our LinkedIn group page.
