Doug Hartline

Executive Assistant to the Vice Chancellor
and
Director I.T. Planning, Strategy and Administration

Besides keeping the administrative wheels of the organization turning, Hartline serves as the Project Director for the Network 21 project, overseeing numerous teams of talented staff that will be responsible for its implementation. Hartline has also spent the last year chairing an Information Technology Outreach Program Task Force that is responsible for defining a multi-level, multi-faceted blueprint for campuswide information technology education and technology support. Once implemented it is envisioned that this program will greatly enhance the campus' effectiveness in the use of information technologies. In effect, Hartline says, "the program will provide the coordination and economies of scale of a centralized support structure, but the flexibility and responsiveness of a decentralized support team."

Hartline also is a member of the systemwide Technical Acquisition Support Advisory Committee, which works to ensure the procurement of cost-effective software and hardware agreements for the University.
