In looking at some of the funding requests for TRF money, there's an issue of ongoing vs one-time costs. We'll need a migration strategy. It will be hard to put every student on that server. Another use is to authenticate printing, so students will only get a certain number of copies before they need to pay for printing. We shouldn't assume that all the costs can be shifted to the users.
Users can now fill out a form on the web to select the username they want and a forwarding address.
Another request to look at is the one for adaptive technology. This is an area that will become more important than handicapped parking in terms of the university's obligation to provide appropriate accommodation. Our request for funding for adaptive technology was turned down last year by the TRF committee, but the Provost put the money into it. We're asking again this year, and we're looking for outside funding as a long-term solution. The CRC could put together reasonsthe Faculty Senate should recommend better funding, like the Ad Hoc Information Services Committee did with the library.
