Austin, TX – June 21, 2012

In response to higher education IT leaders’ increasing interest in managed ResNet, Apogee will be hosting a ResNet management panel session at the upcoming June 25 SUNY Technology Conference in Rye Brooke, New York.

The panel, titled “The Student Network in an Era of Transformational IT Leadership”, will take an insider’s look at how IT leaders are effectively managing ResNet while staying on top of other institutional priorities. The session will begin at 4:30pm on Monday in the Port Chester room of the Rye Brooke Hilton. Panelists Eric Grignon, Assistant Director of Residential Life & Technology at the University at Albany, and Shannon Sauro, Director of Telecommunications & Business Processes at the College at Brockport will describe their experiences with ResNet outsourcing in the following three areas:

1. 1. What led to the decision to outsource the student ResNet on campus?
2. 2. How has the decision to outsource ResNet impacted IT and other priorities?
3. 3. How has the decision to outsource ResNet impacted the larger campus community?

The presentation will be moderated by Skip Hendrickson, Apogee’s national director of sales, and will be followed by a brief question and answer session with members of the audience.

SUNY professionals attending the conference are invited to stop by Apogee’s booth (#203) in the exhibit hall to further discuss the role of ResNet management in today’s shifting technology landscape.
