Climate Change, COVID-19, and the Next Generation of Higher Ed IT

What can we foresee about the impact of climate change on campus technology? This session uses cutting-edge research to explore that question and asks participants to consider additional questions: Which IT services are likely to grow or be curtailed? What role does IT play in academic redesign driven by climate change? What can we learn from our COVID-19 experience?
