From: Henry T. Yang, Chancellor
Dear Colleagues:
I am pleased to announce the formation of UCSB's Information Technology Board (ITB), a new campus administrative committee formed to address the re-organization and administration of the information technologies on our campus. The ITB is the result of extensive discussions this last year by the Campus Network Committee, the Academic Senate leadership, and senior campus administrators on the opportunities and challenges that a rapidly evolving rate of information technology presents to UCSB. The ITB will be comprised of faculty, staff, students and senior campus administrators who will make recommendations to Executive Vice Chancellor Ilene Nagel and myself on the ordering of campus priorities and on strategic plans for the development of campus-wide information technology.
I am delighted to announce that Professor Robert Sugar will chair the ITB during the coming year. The membership of the committee is listed below.
I thank all of those with whom I have consulted. I also appreciate the efforts of all of the committee members who are willing to serve and to share their wisdom and time.
Sincerely,
Henry T. Yang
