She has 17 years of experience in IT at Cornell, encompassing the areas of desktop support, voice and data network deployment, enterprise operations management, directory services, and authentication and authorization services. She holds a master’s degree in Slavic studies from Cornell and received her undergraduate degree from the State University of New York at Albany.
David Yeh is the assistant vice president for student and academic services and serves as the university registrar and Ivy student-athlete eligibility officer at Cornell University. In this role, he has collaborated with colleagues on many innovative technology initiatives, including serving as the lead business-side partner in introducing online student and faculty self-services by adopting Cornell’s Mandarin tools before the Internet existed, acting as the university’s lead in the development of the PeopleSoft student information system, creating the digital ID card for multifunctional purposes, and transforming the matriculation and registration process from paper to paperless. He leads the overall student information system efforts. Yeh is a member of board of directors of the National Student Clearinghouse, serving on its Executive Committee and chairing its College Advisory Committee. He earned degrees at the University of Illinois Chicago and New York University. Yeh has been in higher education and medical education over the past 30 years, and also worked as a park ranger. SummaryYour host, Steve Worona, will be joined by Andrea Beesing and David Yeh, and the topic will be "A Case for Collaborative Identity Management in a Complex Decentralized Environment." Using the identity life cycle of the Cornell student as a use case, we will discuss the value of approaching identity management as a collective responsibility. The business and IT sides of the house must partner to meet rising expectations for streamlined access to information in a world where services are distributed not only across multiple campus units but also across multiple institutions.
