Tune in November 5 for a talk with Erv Blythe, vice president for information technology at Virginia Tech. During this hour-long, free EDUCAUSE Live! Web seminar, Blythe will discuss the IT-related lessons the university has learned from the tragic shootings that took place on campus this past spring, including:

The impact on the university's communication system
The notification issue
Radio communications interoperability
The complex logistics of accommodating the communications infrastructure and control center needs for a variety of emergency responders and law enforcement
Identity management and privacy
Data preservation and computer forensics

He will also consider overarching federal, state, and local policy issues and ways in which the university has managed them.

If you are unable to attend, you may wish to visit the EDUCAUSE Live! archives, where a recording of this seminar will be posted shortly afterward. You can also browse resources on emergency notification systems and communications in EDUCAUSE Connect.
