Welcome to the CMES Virtual Staff Assistant

The Virtual Office Assistant is designed to make life easier for faculty, staff, associates and student assistants at the Center for Middle Eastern Studies.

Below you'll find links to all kinds of resources around Harvard and outside of Harvard, as well as a list of commonly used forms that are available for download. The guides, tools, guidelines and links found on the navigation bar to the left will assist you in planning events, dealing with financial and academic administration, hiring students, updating your information on the CMES webpage, and more. The Virtual Office Assistant should be your first port of call for basic administrative assistance.

We welcome your comments on how to improve the Virtual Office Assistant.
