Previously at Indiana University, he was the associate vice president for information technology (telecommunications), the executive investigator on the Teragrid grant, the chief operating officer for the Pervasive Technology Labs, and served in IT support for 10 years. Voss is an oft-published author of papers and articles on a variety of IT subjects and has presented at dozens of technical and managerial conferences over the past decade. SummaryYour host, Steve Worona, will be joined by Brian Voss, and the topic will be "At Katrina's Edge: One Campus's Story." Louisiana State University CIO Brian Voss will share his university’s experiences in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. LSU (and IT at LSU) played a key role, providing a central point for relief and response functions and supporting recovery of IT operations for affected campuses. Katrina’s devastation should alert CIOs throughout higher education of the need to think about disaster recovery and business continuity planning with a broader perspective, including how we might leverage growing cyberinfrastructure and collaborative partnerships.
