Why should CCB do this?

  • Any graduate student can get any version of Windows ($40-200) on their personal laptops, for free. They don't have to delete the software when they leave, since license is "Perpetual Rights". But they must get the software before they leave!
  • Research labs, like Freed's, get expensive (price?) programming software for free. Ex. Visual Studio Pro 2012, $500 list (no academic pricing?).
  • One Note for both researchers and students.
  • May promote use of Visio (drawing tools) and MS Project, especially if staff can use it.
  • Provides ChemIT staff (CCB representatives) 4 Technical Support Incidents and Priority Support in MSDN (MS Developer Network) Forums.

...

  • If cover research areas: Add via updated lists coming from CCB Admin (Kevin or Sharon). And/ or add people ad hoc.
  • If cover graduate students: Add via updated lists coming from Instruction (Pat) or from CCB Admin (Kevin or Sharon).
  • Re: Undergraduates taking Chem classes: Too much work, and not enough academic reason, to add/ maintain/ support undergraduate students under this program, even if technically possible. However, might add students in a class if a professor is requiring use of a specific software package covered by this license.
