Satellite time for the campus

Need super-accurate time?  Primex Wireless clocks rely on the "atomic" clocks of Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites.  The synchronization signal is re-broadcast to the Primex clocks via terrestrial radio transmitters that penetrate into every campus building.

Daylight Saving Time (again)

Speaking of time, the tail end of the expanded DST schedule arrives October 28.  By now, most computers' software will be smart enough to hold off an extra week before "falling back."  But not all.  So be prepared for another (hopefully smaller) round of confusion about the time.
