In the summer of 2012, Emmanuel College and Massachusetts College of Art and Design, both members of the Colleges of the Fenway consortium, consolidated their data centers in a shared facility outside of Boston. The project increased the reliability of their infrastructure while reducing long-term costs. This presentation will describe the project, how it has benefited all three organizations, and how other small colleges can learn from their experience to build strong intercollegiate relationships.
