The IT Student Advisory Council is charged with assisting in the prioritization of students' technology needs and requirements at UNCW. The council serves the office of the Vice Chancellor of Information Technology Systems Division and is comprised of 10-15 representatives from the diverse range of students across campus. The primary goal of this council is to enhance and increase information technology services to students in order to best meet their academic, social and extracurricular needs.

IT Communication Liaison

The IT Communication Liaison serves as ITSD's primary contact for the communication and dissemination of information regarding support, services and training that affect either a specific area or the entire campus. The main role of the liaison is to distribute pertinent information in a timely, effective manner across their area. Each division, college and school has a designated liaison. Periodically, the liaisons will meet with ITSD leadership to discuss issues and initiatives, such as upcoming software upgrades, scheduled outages, major release or implementation rollouts, training, and other important IT-related changes or events that the campus needs to be aware of and, in some cases, prepare for.

The Project Leads are responsible for communicating information to their respective units. The Banner Project Leads are comprised of key personnel representing each Banner module and ITSD staff. This group meets twice a month.
