Academic Technology Advisory Committee (ATAC)
The Academic Technology Advisory Committee (ATAC) was formed in Fall 2008 to have an advisory role to the office of Academic Technology and serve as a forum to discuss and assist in planning, support and communication of academic technology initiatives for teaching and learning.

- Research how departments currently use and plan to use the technologies in the computing facilities.
- Evaluate how these technologies are working for the curricular needs of the programs.
- Communicate university policies and procedures as they relate to Academic Technology facilities and services.
- Advise administration and the university community on technology trends that may affect the curricular needs of their programs.
