FAQ

Q: Who will see my profile?
A: Your profile will be visible to anyone viewing the mining.parsons.edu site, as well as visitors to the thesis exhibitions who may request more information about you via SMS codes on the festival signage.

Q: Will my email address be shared with anyone?
A: No, your newschool email address will not be visible in the system, will not be shared with anyone outside of The New School. Anyone who sends you a message will be doing so deliberately, after seeing your individual profile on DataMyne or work in the festival.

Q: Why can't I list my gmail or other email address?
A: This may be an option in future versions, though we are using your New School email address because we already have it, and it will work forever. This is a great time to set up your email to forward messages from my.newschool.

Q: I can't log in, what's up?
A: Use your netID and your New School password.

A: We only have information from the Dean's Office reflecting the last several years, to create the most current view of teaching activity.

A: New teaching records are imported from the Dean's Office at the 4th week of classes, after the schedules are reflecting truly accurate information.

Q: My status recently changed, but I can't edit this info, what gives?

Q: How long will it take to have my info appear on the new Parsons website?
A: Content is regularly uploaded from datamine to Parsons site every couple of weeks. You can update your profile directly as often as you like to share your research interests with colleagues, and convey information about faculty and related initiatives to prospective students and faculty.
