Internet2: Advanced Networking

in Support of the Curriculum and Research

Myron Lowe, Director of External Technology, University of Minnesota
Sean Fox, web developer
David Musicant, assistant professor of computer science
Andrea Nixon, associate director of academic computing
John Schott, professor of cinema and media studies

This was a working group session to discuss curricular and research uses of our pending Internet2 connection, to learn about current uses in the higher education community and to hear colleagues reflect on potential uses at Carleton. This spring, ITS is sponsoring a round of grants to support experimentation with Internet2-based tools. This working session was an opportunity to think about how a fast, high-capacity internet might best support our work at the College.
