ACT is a grassroots initiative formed in 2000 by six representatives from Information Technology Services, Center for Access-Ability Resources, Housing and Dining Services, University Libraries, and the Illinois Dept. of Health and Human Services. Several student representatives have participated over the years, as well as interested faculty.
ACT meets on the first Wednesday of every month in the Holmes Student Center Blackhawk East room in the lower level cafeteria (or other location to be determined). The group meets at 11:30 for a brownbag lunch, and an informal meeting begins at 12:00 noon. There is no agenda, no minutes are recorded, and no official roster exists. The opportunity is set aside each month to promote an open dialogue about technology needs and available resources. Members from all service and academic divisions are encouraged to participate. Attendance is not required, but is guaranteed to make participants feel part of a very worthwhile endeavor.
