Xavier University (Cincinnati, Ohio). University Technology Committee

Roger Fortin in his To See Great Wonders states: "In 1993 the university established an ad hoc Technology Task Force. Three years later it created the University Technology Committee, whose charge included broad-base planning that integrated the academic and administrative technology needs of the university and provided guidance in matters of budgeting for technology." The Committee held its first meeting in October, 1996. In August, 2013 the University Technology Committee (along with the Academic Technology Committee) were both replaced by the Xavier Technology Committee (XTC).

"Committee Descriptions, 2010-11" gives this description of the committee: "...the decisions and recommendations of this committee reflect the university's academic and administrative needs and its strategic plan. Proposals for major projects are initiated by the university's departments and are forwarded to the Academic Technology Committee, and the Administrative IT Committee as appropriate. The University Technology Committee will evaluate proposed initiatives to ensure optimal benefits from resources allocated to technology at the university. It will review and recommend university-wide policies related to the utilization and implementation of information technology resources and systems. It will also review the strategic technological directions of the university."
