Sharon Moore Smith College The ACUTA Journal focuses on the identified interest areas of the core membership, recognizing that the Journal’s audience spans the range from administration to management to technical staff. Technical and managerial, strategic and tactical approaches to the traditional voice, data, and video applications within the higher education environment are addressed. In addition, content covers emerging and converging technologies that facilitate access to information critical to the classroom as well as the administrative FORMAT The ACUTA Journal is a 40-page quarterly publication. A maximum of 30 percent of the Journal is available to advertisers. While we accept both color and black-and-white advertisements for the interior pages, ads placed on all covers must be full color. It is our intent to present useful, timely information for communications collaboration technology professionals in a visually appealing publication of high production and content quality. Most issues contain five to seven feature articles including two or three case studies. The Journal is designed to serve as a resource for the college IT/Telecom Department as well as others. Electronic Edition offices on today’s campus. Policy, legal, and regulatory impacts on the applications of these technologies are also of interest to the membership and to the broader academic community. OVERVIEW EDITORIAL FOCUS Each issue is built around a theme, frequently reflecting the topic of a recent ACUTA event. Presenters at conferences and seminars are encouraged to contribute articles when appropriate. A mix of authors has been cultivated, with some articles written by authors who are recruited for their expertise in a particular field and other articles and case studies drawn from submissions by ACUTA members and others. In addition to feature articles, each issue also includes: • President’s message • CEO’s column • Interviews ADVERTORIAL The advertorial, a 4-page insert bound in at the center of the Journal, is a significant advertising opportunity. Companies are invited to write educational copy describing an installation or introducing a new technology. On the middle four pages of the Journal, we place the story plus their advertisement. On request, we will handle the production to make the copy look like the rest of the editorial content, and clearly mark it “Advertising.” More information on page 7. Each issue of the Journal is also available as a PDF document on the ACUTA website: www.acuta.org/journal. 3 ACUTA READER PROFILE ACUTA is an international nonprofit educational association of more than 2,100 communications technology professionals, representing more than 650 colleges and universities and the technology providers who serve the educational market. University members are our target audience. They include CIOs; telecommunications and information technology directors, managers, and staff; and other administrators who plan and implement communications technology solutions. ACUTA members are responsible for data and video networks as well as the evolving mechanisms of voice telephony. New and changing technologies present opportunity as well as challenge. As universities increasingly rely on communications technology to meet today's challenges, ACUTA has emerged as a partner in success in an environment of exponential change. The Journal represents one of the tools ACUTA uses to provide quality information to our members. Institutional membership is available to any accredited college or university. Associate membership is also available to individuals who are involved in information technology services at other institutions, such as government agencies, primary or secondary schools, hospitals, and similar organizations. ACUTA is also proud of the corporate affiliate program which encourages vendors to develop sound business relationships with the schools they service and provides opportunities for industry and education to work together. OUR MISSION ACUTA’s mission is to advance the capabilities of higher-education communications and collaboration technology leaders. Our vision is to be the premier source for connecting higher-education information technology leaders with ideas and solutions to deliver superior communications and collaboration technologies. 4 We serve IT leaders responsible for communications and collaboration technologies and services and the infrastructure that supports them. RESPONSIBILITIES OF OUR MEMBERS INCLUDE: • BYOD issues • Wireless data and voice • Institutional telephone & voicemail services • Network management • Technology strategic planning • Unified communications • E911 • Internet access • Campus LANs • Infrastructure wiring/connectivity • ResNet • Help desk services • Schools from all 50 states in the United States plus Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands and Washington, D.C. • 11 schools in Canada, representing 6 provinces • 1 school in New Zealand • At 77% of ACUTA member schools, the communications technology budget exceeds $1,000,000. At 55%, the budget exceeds $2,000,000. • 65% of our members have 20+ years of experience in IT/telecom technologies in a higher-education setting. • 51% of our members work in departments of fewer than 20 employees, which means doing more with less and stretching personnel resources. AUDIENCE PROFILE WHO ARE ACUTA MEMBERS? • Increasingly, ACUTA members report that IT technology plays a strategic role in the long-range plan for their campuses. A GLOBAL NETWORK OF COMMUNICATIONS PROFESSIONALS As wireless technologies and the Internet enable colleges to expand higher education beyond the walls of the traditional campus, ACUTA provides a unique forum for valuable connections among its members. ACUTA recognizes that, in order to meet the evolving needs of the university, global alliances among educational institutions, business, government, research organizations, and industry are essential. ACUTA members work cooperatively with both their university colleagues and industry leaders to achieve common goals. 5 ACUTA SPRING 2013 Mail Date: March 15 IPv6, SIP Trunking, & Other Upgrades Technological sophistication is one key to success in education today as well as in today’s business environment. But staying anywhere near the cutting edge requires constant upgrades as improvements happen increasingly often. How do we prioritize our upgrade schedules, and are there any certainties as we try to look into the future? In this issue of the Journal, we will look at some of the most promising paths, such as IPv6 and SIP trunking. IPv6 addressing has been around since early 2011, providing higher-education institutions with new challenges. The plethora of devices brought onto campus reinforce the need for a network infrastructure that can handle the amplified load with few, if any, glitches. What are the major challenges for migration to IPv6 from IPv4? Why do we need IPv6, and what are the costs involved? Large, or small, if your institution has not embraced an IPv6 strategy, you will want to get your evaluation process underway. Many institutions have already journeyed down the SIP pathway. Whether your campus utilizes PRIs, ISDN BRIs, or other traditional technology, is it time for you to consider SIP trunking? What is SIP, and what are its advantages and disadvantages? What kind of ROI does it offer? What do we have to learn? How do we evaluate SIP providers? These are just two examples of topics that will be discussed as we try to prepare for the future. We will be talking with CIOs and others involved in technology planning to learn how to meet the demands of all our constituents with a cost-effective strategy. 6 SUMMER 2013 FALL 2013 Mail Date: June 15 Mail Date: September 15 Funding the Enterprise: Managing Money and More Campus Technology Profile 2014 Is modern technology built to last? As it needs to be upgraded, replaced, or refreshed on a regular basis, how do we ensure that the funding will be available when we need it? As technology professionals in higher education, we see firsthand many of the challenges associated with the pace of change in our campus technology environments. The demand for Internet bandwidth and services delivered over the campus network is ever increasing. In the last couple of years, we’ve added to our vocabulary terms such as BYOD, VDI, Big Data, and cloud computing, and we continue to see increased demand for access to technology in classrooms--from high-resolution projection systems to video conferencing and lecture-capture solutions. Many of us are working feverishly to identify strategies that will allow us to fund the upfront implementation costs, provide for ongoing maintenance and support, and ultimately, to replace or upgrade these technologies. In this issue, we will see how several institutions are addressing these challenges. We will look at such strategies as funding technology initiatives as part of the capital project process; building a realistic budget to support maintenance and replacement needs, and in general, managing resources as we maximize the return on the original investment. We will discuss the importance of tying any capital expenditure into the university’s stated goals within the overall Campus Master Plan. We’ll also provide input from institution CIOs and CFOs, and highlight the importance of the two working together to achieve these goals. ❝ Only soon-to-be-retirees can remember the campus that existed before computers, cell phones, the Internet, and social media. The technology profile of the typical college in 2014 includes a string of terms that would read like a foreign language to a college freshman in 1964. In 50 years we’ve changed just about everything about the college experience. This issue of the Journal will present a picture of the typical campus today that offers what are now considered basic services: ubiquitous access from any kind of device, MOOCs, cloud technology, digital books, video streaming, BYOD, and more. From the dorm room to the classroom, nothing is untouched by technology, and there are new rules for social, economic, and educational life. Students who have grown up with electronic gadgets and gizmos have high expectations when they arrive on campus, and it is a never-ending challenge not just to anticipate and meet those expectations, but also to keep everything secure. We will also look at what innovations may be on the bleeding edge and the possible impacts—both good and not so good--of as-yet-unidentified technologies on the classroom, residence halls, libraries, labs, and administrative offices. What is the baseline for a campus technology profile in 2014? Are there pitfalls to beware of? Are there new revenue streams to help finance these innovations? Are there legislative or regulatory issues to consider? ACUTA members, consultants, and other experts will provide interesting answers to our questions in the fall Journal. I appreciate the vendors who advertise in our Journal for their support of the association. Advertisers who know ACUTA are much more likely to be familiar with the unique needs of higher education, and that puts them higher on my list. Jeanne Jansenius, Director, Telecom & Technology Infrastructure Services Sewanee: The University of the South ACUTA Offers the Mail Date: December 15 Maintaining Security & Privacy in a Very Public World As global information continues to be easier to obtain, universities are challenged to establish effective privacy safety guards. The massive networks and open and widely distributed computing environments we need in order to meet demands across the campus unfortunately create a wide range of potential security vulnerabilities. MOOCs, extended campuses, the proliferation of video, and government requirements are stressing existing campus network infrastructures. This open environment, populated by young technophiles, has led to an influx of devices that is not seen in any other industry. Sensitive information about students and employees necessary for essential internal functions is at risk as thousands of people access these networks daily, using not just campus computers but their personal laptops, mobile phones, and other devices. The FTC has mandated that all businesses, public or private, must provide a sound security plan to keep personal identity information, including credit-card information and credit reports, safe until everything is properly disposed of. Enhancements to the wireless network actually complicate this mandate. Students and others expect to be able to control and maintain their personal information from anywhere (intranet or Internet), which introduces a number of potential security and identity issues. As the number of mobile applications available grows exponentially, any institution that doesn’t proactively guard against security breaches puts itself—and its constituents—at high risk. ADVERTORIAL Promote Your Products & Services to Thousands of Technology Professionals! ACUTA is pleased to offer another opportunity to reach out to the college and university market to let our members know you want to help them do their jobs better, more efficiently, or more cost-effectively. It’s the advertorial—an article you write and we insert into the center of the Journal. It’s printed in full color on the same paper as the rest of the Journal, and in appearance it can look like all the other articles. It’s four pages long, and it may include display advertising if you choose. There is only one advertorial per issue of the Journal. The advertorial is different in content because you can promote your product or your company without being restricted by the objectivity standards of the rest of the editorial content. We expect it to be informational and educational (if it isn’t, no one will want to read it!), but you could use it to showcase a new product, describe a new technology, or present a case study featuring your products. EDITORIAL CALENDAR WINTER 2013 To make this feature even more attractive, upon your request, we will provide you with a PDF of your advertorial so that you can publish it on your website or print it for distribution to potential clients. To reserve your space in an upcoming issue, complete the insertion order on page 11. For more information about the advertorial, contact ACUTA Journal editor Pat Scott at pscott@acuta.org or 859/721-1659. The winter Journal will address how some campuses are approaching privacy and information security via cloud-based networks, security monitoring packages for the wired and wireless networks, and legal and ethical responsibilities, as well as firewall policies and maintenance. ❝ snom has advertised in the ACUTA Journal since winter 2009.
