“Campus IT Priorities: A Conversation with Kenneth C. Green of the Campus Computing Project”
Campus IT priorities are changing – or are they? Clearly campus IT leaders confront significant budget challenges, as well as the growing demand for additional IT resources and services: going mobile, maintaining IT security, supporting online instruction, migrating to cloud computing, enabling lecture capture, and also updating the institutional IT infrastructure.
Yet new data from the fall 2012 Campus Computing Survey reveal that core issues – the instruction integration of information technology, IT user support, and hiring/retaining qualified IT personnel – are the top concerns of CIOs and other senior campus IT officers. Moreover, the fall 2012 survey data suggest that presidents, provosts, and CIOs offer up very mixed assessments about the effectiveness of campus IT investments.
Green will discuss the challenges that confront campus IT officers as well as the IT priorities that emerged from the fall 2012 Campus Computing Survey.
