FAIRFAX, Va.--(Business Wire)--
Datatel, Inc. today announced that St. Lawrence University (SLU) has selected
Datatel Colleague® to create a Strategic Academic Enterprise™ that will
integrate its finance and human resource functions into a Web-based, campus-wide
information management solution. The University has also licensed Datatel`s

"We are delighted to welcome St. Lawrence University to the far-reaching Datatel
user community," said Liz Murphy, Datatel`s chief client officer. "Our
partnership will greatly contribute to SLU`s efforts to achieve a high return on
their technology investment and promote successful student outcomes."

Datatel Colleague is specifically designed to manage and improve departmental
workflows, business processes, productivity, and efficiency across the
