Technology Planning Council - The TPC has been working to develop a strategic plan for technology. A web site for feedback on a consultant’s report has been created: http://info.gcsu.edu/intranet/tpc/ along with two public forums to solicit responses.
Facilities Usage - The RPIPC established a work group to examine policies relating to use of campus facilities by outside groups, especially those groups that require extensive use of physical plant services without compensating those agencies. A discussion of R25 and the Campus Life ISE scheduling systems revealed that there are complications regarding how facilities are reserved.
Intellectual Property - Quintus Sibley introduced the Intellectual Property policy document, and the committee decided to read it over before the April meeting. More about the policy can be viewed at: http://www.gcsu.edu/president/ipc/default.html
Security - The acting Public Safety director, Dave Groseclose, informed the RPIPC about the policies regarding building access after hours. A discussion of ways to improve campus safety included a suggestion to invite Officer Brian English to address a variety of departments to help them protect students in various situations.
West Campus Master Plan - There will be a meeting with Sasaki Associates regarding West Campus, as they work to develop a master plan. http://info.gcsu.edu/masterplan/
