Description: CITES currently offers two central email solutions, Microsoft Exchange and CITES Express, and two central calendaring solutions, Microsoft Exchange and Oracle Calendar. A number of units on campus run their own email and/or calendaring services rather than using any of these CITES offerings. Many students, faculty and staff are now using free off-campus email and calendaring offerings from companies such as Google and Yahoo. This session will provide an overview of the current state of email and calendaring on campus, review what is being done here and on other campuses with off-campus services such as Gmail and briefly outline some future changes for these services that have been discussed. The panel will then invite discussion on what campus email and calendaring services should look like three to five years from now.
