About the initiative
University standards and best practices will be developed as building blocks from which to develop solutions that meet the needs of various IT architectures. These building blocks are provided as a direct response to the University of Utah Environmental Citizenship Principle.
This initiative will drive the University of Utah to be a leader in this field and challenge the University on many current and future IT solutions.
Committee Structure
The Green Computing Steering Committee will meet on a bimonthly basis in order to drive the content of this wiki forward as well as work on aligning this focus with the focus of Campus wide initiatives driven by the Office of Sustainability.
A focus of information sharing with the general campus community via e-mail and this forum is the primary communications method for this initiative. The steering committee will showcase Green solutions both on and off campus.
