What Price 'Safe'?

8/21/2006

And what are the people and process issues that must be weighed in the balance? Surely these are the true considerations of a CIO worth his or her salt; considerations that senior technologists must weigh each and every day as they face new challenges. We’ll have another chance to examine the demands campus technologists face—and their unique approaches to these challenges— in our upcoming “101 Best Practices: Smart Classroom, Connectivity, Administrative IT.” Send a brief (200 words or less) description of your own best practices in any of these three areas to rkelly@1105media.com, with the subject line “Best Practices.” The deadline is September 30. We want to know how your own institution is balancing the intelligent use of people, process, and tools.
