• The meeting opened with a discussion of the campus wide email migration to be started on the 19th of December. This will require everyone to reset their password. Novell, Unix and Windows passwords should be consolidated so there is but one password for a user in all of these systems. There will be a default mail space of 25 mb although this is expandable. Users with an inappropriate amount of email on the imap server will be encouraged to archive locally. Departmental secretaries should be briefed and able to field basic questions. Through aliasing the change should be transparent to the user.

• Michael agreed to do a hardcopy information sheet and Terry agreed to put information about the migration on the RCOE web page.
• A Web Encryption Protocol (WEP)

• There was a discussion of technology faculty development, needs assessment and technology dissemination. It was agreed that focus groups should be used to get at the reasons WebCT is not widely adopted and used in the RCOE. The first TAC meeting of the semester will be devoted to the questions and focus group issues. John agreed to invite someone from the Hubbard Center to help with the formation of the focus groups.
