Portland State University Launches New Portal

The Daily Vanguard, the student newspaper of Portland State University, published an article about the university’s new portal, built on the Luminis Platform from SunGard Higher Education.  “A little-known new technology for Portland State students will be getting more exposure this month when spring registration begins ... The portal site is called Luminis, named after the platform upon which it was built. Kristin Boden-McKay, director of Web communications, said the Luminis platform was chosen because SunGard Higher Education, the same company that provides Banner, the PSU student information system, offers it. This system will integrate easily with the Banner system. The portal presents all of the basic information a student needs to access classes and grades, financial aid requirements, personal information and account balances.
