Session GoalsPresent ways in which we might re-think the campus portal
Provide examplesGenerate ideas & thoughts
Note: while the presentation will rely heavily on what we’ve done at Ithaca, not everything described is something we’ve actually implemented. The focus is intended to be on the concepts being described, not a particular implementation.Slide5
