Report Outlines Network 21 Funding Strategies

The report outlines the Committee's recommended rate structure for Network 21. Recommendations are based on the campus community's response to the rate structure proposed in the Committee's original report published in March 1996.

The campus is invited to respond to the new "Multi-Part" rate structure proposed in the Network 21 report. Copies of the report, which is on the Web at http://net21.ucdavis.edu, were distributed at the Chancellor's Brown Bag on Dec. 5.
