CIS begins move to Davol Square

Posted on January 9, 2004 01:44 PM

On Monday, January 12, around 50 CIS employees reported for work in their new quarters at Davol Square. The majority of the Administrative systems groups are now located in the Davol Square business park at Eddy and Point streets. These include the Applications Development and Administrative Systems Technology staff as well as administrative support and CIS's Vice President, Ellen Waite-Franzen.

Staff and services key to supporting the Brown academic community will remain in the CIT: the Instructional Technology Group and Computer Education on the second level, the Help Desk, Service & Repair and dispatch printing on the first, and computer operations in the lower level. The Scholarly Technology Group (STG) will continue to be located in the Graduate Center.

Computer Science (CS) expansion needs have prompted the move from the CIT building, which has been CIS's central home for 15 years. "CIS Central" will shift to the Jewelry District once the CS department expands its classroom and office space (now on the 4th and 5th floors) to eventually fill the 3rd floor of the CIT as well. As of January 12, CS will occupy the north half of the 3rd floor, while Network Technology, Systems & Services,   IT Security and Telecommunications temporarily work in the south half. In June, those CIS staff members will also move to Davol Square.

Note that with Telecomm's move, basic telephone questions can be answered at the Help Desk off the CIT lobby or via email or phone.
