BREAKING NEWS: Brown Voyage

posted today on Johnson County Community College's electronic mail server, Infolist:

It is with a great deal of personal and professional sadness that we announce that Dr. Wayne Brown, executive vice president, administration, and CIO, will be leaving Johnson County Community College in September. He has accepted the position of vice president of information services at a university out-of-state. Dr. Brown has brought many innovations and tremendous growth to our IT service area, and he has recently led our college through a ground-breaking assessment of campus and community safety. His leadership and talent will be deeply missed. However, please join me in congratulating him on this new and challenging endeavor.

Within the next several days I plan to distribute a college-wide communication that will describe several new initiatives the college will be undertaking and related administrative adjustments to support those initiatives. In that correspondence I will include information about any changes to the IS branch. In the meantime, I know we can rely on the talents and skills of our Information Services staff and Campus Police officers to keep us connected and safe during this time of transition.
