Mark Twain once said
“I knew a man who picked a cat up by the tail.
He learned 40 percent more about cats than the man who didn’t.”
During Banner implementation, we picked up a lot of cats and received a lot of scratches at Wichita State University.

Banner Training and Help Desk Lessons Learned
The most valuable lessons learned during implementation were not those focused on the “how to” topics related to Banner, WSU procedures or data entry.
Rather, we learned to work with the campus community, to identify needs and guide them as they use “all things Banner” at WSU.
