Technology Fee Request Guidelines for FY08
Technology Fee funds for departmental awards will be allocated
based on the following guidelines.
- Follow priorities assigned by Deans, based on the SACS unit goals.
- Give priority to low cost, but high impact, applications.
- Consider DLABS services and computing lab hardware/software before
funding for peripherals such as GPS devices, cameras, VCRs, and other
equipment.
- Requests for network installation will be considered only if there
is a departmental commitment for the recurring monthly port charges.
- Make an effort to equitably distribute the funding among as many different
departments as possible.
- Give special attention to colleges or departments that did not receive
significant investments in the previous year.
- Departmental staffing will not be considered for funding.
Requests will be brought to the Technology Advisory Board for review
and recommendations. Awards are not for a specific amount of monies and
no funds will be provided via a transfer voucher. Requested equipment
will be provided directly by the Office of Information Technology and
will remain on the inventory of the Technology Fee account according to
the Technology Fee inventory management policy.
