Feb. 2 IT forum will focus on data storage An extensive strategic planning process for information technology led by CIO Josh Riedy in Fall 2008 resulted in the identification of critical Core Technology Services. This spring, the Office of the CIO will continue to host a series of open forums to develop solutions, cost, sustainability and implementation for these core technology services. In this next phase, we again ask for your valuable input as the success of this process requires the active involvement and partnered decision-making from across campus. All forums will be broadcast live and recorded. Please see the UND CIO web site http://cio.und.edu for more information. Online surveys are available for additional feedback from the campus community. They open the day of the forum and continue for ten days. Please plan to attend the Data Storage (individual, shared, research & archival) forum from 10 to 11:30 a.m. Tuesday, Feb. 2, in the Badlands Room at the Memorial Union. If you have any questions, please contact Mike Lefever at michaellefever@mail.und.edu or 777-2030. -- Mike Lefever, Project Manager, AVP/Dean of Outreach/CIO Office
