How To Help With a University ICT Strategy?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Monday July 27, 2009 @07:12AM from the trying-not-to-screw-up-from-day-one dept.

An anonymous reader writes "I have been asked to contribute to my university's revised ICT (Information and Communication Technology) strategy and I am curious what fellow Slashdot members consider to be the main advice in this context. What are the major mistakes that organizations like universities make? Given the complexity of the different participants in a university, how does one have a coherent strategy that fulfills the needs of such a wide audience? How does one promote open source in a managerial culture? How does one deal with the curse of the virtual learning environment?"

Clearly they need to restrict masturbation to only university community members.
