Rollover Plan
 Rick presents the IT plan for Non-instructional Technology Equipment Needs which includes
computers and peripherals that cost over $200. This request was submitted to Management:
Directors, Deans and VPs for completion.
 Rick asks that the committee consider future needs: dual v. single platform; laptop v. desktop,
Mac v. PC.
 The committee agrees that the Equipment Needs is a part of the rollover recommendation, but
that a global rollover policy needs to be permanently adopted for budget and planning purposes.
 Consensus was reached on the policy’s language, particularly the section about
recognizing the five year lifespan of technology.
 The policy recommendation, once finalized, will go to the IPC and then to College Council.
 IT and the committee will continue the discussion on future equipment planning.
 Future discussion should also include training for instructors on using technology in the labs and
classrooms.
