• Documentation for Physics Administration and Instruction
• Project Copernicus (PhysIT) (restricted, for PhysIT staff)

Contextual reminders

• Craig Wiggers started Monday, April 18, 2016.
• PhysIT (via ChemIT) began service to Physics Admin and Instruction Nov. 1, 2013.
• We transitioned service from CCMR/ LASSP, coordinating with Barry. Mostly for the Freed group.

Notes

NOTE: Prior items either embedded as a PhysIT project (parked somewhere below), or codified in our PhysIT-related documentation.

NEW to do, as of 5/9/16

Craig asked if there were short or long range plan for hardware updates/upgrades for their office. Oliver's recommendations:

• Review two inventory pages listing some info for all Physics computers.
• Consider creating a computer replacement budget plan. Can result in fewer budgeting surprises and streamlined decision-making.

To do, as of 3/23/16

• Craig to invite Roger, via <PhysIT>, to present Physics IT's 20-25 minute presentation/ discussion with (all?) Physics staff on malware and what can be done to avoid problems.
  • Oliver suggests scheduling staff meeting for 45 minutes to ensure staff's questions are addressed.
• To consider adding: Roger has also created a 20-25 minute Windows 10 overview we'd very much appreciate showing Physics staff in preparation for future computer upgrades.
  • This will go a long way to ensure effective use of Windows by staff.

On-going

Review "Active", "Opportunities for improvement", and "Lower priority", below. For example, as of 5/18/15:

• Ensure optimal use of Physics file share, whether and how to engage with ID Finder, and evaluating value proposition of VDI.
