New Apple Cinema Monitors It's an annual ritual: May term ends, the students leave, and ITS swings into high gear, upgrading the campus technology environment in preparation for the Fall semester.  This summer's highlights include:
  • Phase 2 of our 64 bit computing migration, with Athlon64 systems going into faculty/staff offices (the labs are already 64 bit).
  • Project Green Screen, where aging CRT monitors are replaced with energy efficient flat panel displays. Last year, ITS & Library labs and Ad 21 went flat screen. This year it's all employees over O.5 FTE.  Energy savings vs CRT's are expected to be between $2-3,000/year. Plus, LCD's have a longer lifespan, with less material to go into the landfill at the end of the lifecycle.
  • A new student webserver with Caravel content management system sites to facilitate building portfolios and personal websites.
  • New web-based services for parking registration, event sign-up, e-commerce and more.
  • Wired and wireless networking for the new senior apartments.
  • More wireless access points.
  • Mac OS X "Tiger" upgrades
  • Numerous software upgrades
  • Lots of invisible, under-the-hood improvements.
We're working hard to create the kind of IT environment that empowers students, profs and administrators to learn better, teach better, serve better.
