Abstract

In this column, as in many other print and electronic forums, information technology (IT) is discussed at length in terms of applications for students, faculty, staff, and administrators; in terms of hardware, software, and infrastructure; and in terms of strategic planning, budgeting, and fund-raising. There is only one person on every campus who must constantly assess and balance all these factors and constituencies: the president. However, a presidential perspective—the view from 30,000 feet—does not appear often in discussions about IT in higher education. This column shares my recent conversation on the subject with Carol A. Cartwright, president of Kent State University, a CEO to whom I am privileged to have unique access.
