Two important considerations led to the creation of this Director position. After Kent Steinike left his position for personal reasons, there was a crucial need to continue the progress in developing a project management culture that he had begun. In a short time, Kent helped establish project management awareness and methodology for campus IT initiatives. The new director position will continue this direction.
Additionally, Theresa Parker expressed a desire to pursue other interests related to application development. iCIT customers continually bring new needs and requests for functionality to the application group.
