Tune In May 11--Spotlight Series: How Technology Will Reshape Academe After the Economic Crisis

Some are prepared to concede that the current global financial crisis may take its toll on a number of universities. If indeed a crisis is a terrible thing to waste, future generations of learners will no doubt look back at the global economic crisis of 2008-09 and reflect on which institutions were agile enough to bring the wisdom of its scholars together with the acumen of its technology leadership and the ingenuity and determination of the universities leadership team to make a difference.

In “How Technology Will Reshape Academe After the Economic Crisis,” Lev Gonick, Vice President for Information Technology Services/CIO at Case Western Reserve University, will explore a range of technological-informed “opportunities” from the pragmatics of shared services models to “transformational” arcs of activities in internationalization and open education resources. Join in this timely discussion Monday, May 11, at 1:00 p.m. EDT. No registration required.
