Worried About Loss of Academic Influence, CIO Resigns at Urbana-Champaign – Wired Campus – The Chronicle of Higher Education via kwout

I wish more CIO’s would be willing to insist on an Academic report. Universities regardless of their size or priorities are academically driven and IT should support this mission first.
