Abstract:Higher education is seeing budget cuts, hiring freezes, and travel bans. As responsible IT professionals we must act strategically and creatively to continue to provide exemplary services with fewer resources. How do we assess our service portfolio? What data do we need to make the business case for critical services? What collaborations are needed to make our services affordable and sustainable? How do we keep staff engaged in finding innovative solutions? How do we turn this financially difficult time into an opportunity? What are you doing on your campus? Bring your ideas and strategies to this timely conversation and engage in creating a list of solutions.
