• Implementation of online program: Hosting through the CVC will end July 1 and the recommendation from the committee is to self-host.  Self-hosting has advantages, one being lower cost.
•  
  1. Stay with the CVC for another year using WebCT Campus Edition 4.1 (and new CVC hosting costs) = $9500 (license) + $8000 (CVC) = $17,500.
  2. Self Host using WebCT Campus Edition 4.1  =  (if Rainer has a server available to use = $0),  if not  = $9500 (license) + $7000 (server) = $16,500.
  3. Self Host using WebCT CE Focus, Version 6 = (items below would need to happen within 2 weeks)
       = $9500 (license) + $11,000 (server) + MS SQL server config hrs + 2 Sys Ad training courses = $ 1052 = faculty training + staff hours = $21,552.
   
  So, #3 seems risky at this point in time, and is more expensive.
   
  #s 1 & 2 turn out to be close to a push, but Steve and I think that there is some value to self-hosting as we control our own destiny, and it is a good tune up for future migration when Banner is implemented.
