The committee agreed, but is concerned about the requirements for doing mandatory work because this work required most of the hours in 99-00 and may continue to do so. This may be something we want to share with the VP sponsors. Kudos to all who worked on FAMS and made it so successful this year. Training for the trainers starts next week.
Testing does include the regional campuses.
An RFP or RFI is being prepared to look at what vendors can provide in this area, and also what they can provide for admissions back-office functions for prospect data entry. This RFP is planned for dissemination for feedback in October, and decision by December. It was mentioned that we will have to look to this Committee to assist in balancing how much we do in Admissions Phases 2 and 3, while looking ahead to the other modules. Doug Priest has asked some additional representatives from the Bloomington campus, Don Hossler and Ted Miller, to assist as various issues arise. Funding issues on the Bloomington campus are being discussed.
