I am just re-sending this message (abbreviated), since today is the
deadline for program submissions!  I'm sure there are more of you that
have SOMETHING to do with academic initiatives who haven't submitted a
program yet.  :)

Subject: [RESNET-L] ResNet 2002: Academic Initiatives

Hey there everyone.  I'm the coordinator for the academic initiatives
theme at this year's symposium.  I wanted to make a call out for some
program submissions in this area.

The theme is basically geared towards addressing issues beyond the nitty
gritty technical aspects of ResNet departments, and what we all do when
things start running smoothly and we wonder what to do with ourselves in
order to provide additional services to our colleges/universities!

Here are some general categories that would fall in this category, to get
the ideas flowing:

-ways in which ResNet interacts with academic departments
-user education through workshops, classes, webpages, etc.
-web portals
-fostering new computing environments
-addressing the computing needs (educational/hardware/etc) of students
with varying backgrounds (computer-related or otherwise)
-network policies for student users
-integrating newly admitted students into the network (before they arrive
on campus)
-student organizations and computing needs
-career preparation/assistance for ResNet employees and/or users
-views on the place of computing in education
(see http://slashdot.org/articles/02/02/13/0039203.shtml?tid=146  !)

Thanks,
Lisa
