How will campus prioritize which buildings will have their networks upgraded soonest?
The Office of the Provost has appointed a group of administrators from each college and major unit on campus to determine the order in which the over 250 buildings in need of wiring and electronics upgrades will be done. The Academic Network Advisory Group advises the CIO, on the advice and review of the Provost. While each college and unit will establish their own building priorities and approaches to addressing space and other associated issues, this advisory group will review and vet priorities that go across colleges, including advise the CIO (within the priorities set for each college) regarding which buildings are upgraded in what order over the life of the project. CITES is planning and implementing the upgrade and providing input on how the units’ needs match with the more technical requirements. If you are interested in when your unit or building will be upgraded, see the current list of buildings awaiting upgrade or contact your department or unit’s representative.
