College of IST Gets A New Dean

David HallDr. David Hall, who headed up the Center for Network-Centric Cognition and Information Fusion (NC2IF), has been named the interim Dean of the College of Information Sciences and Technology. The Dean position was left vacant earlier this month when Dean Hank Foley was promoted to Vice President of Research and Dean of the Graduate School.

Since joining the College of IST in 2001, Dr. Hall has managed to secure grants from the Department of Homeland Security, Department of Defense and the Defense Threat Reduction Agency, among others.

Dr. Hall will begin his work as interim Dean on January 1, 2010 and will continue while a national search for a permanent Dean is conducted.

Question of the Day: Sweet Mobile Apps

AT&T is sponsoring a pretty cool competition in which entrants can win $10,000 cash in scholarship money for creating a mobile device application. Teams of up to four people can enter a custom-built application for the purpose of e-learning.  The rules state that the “innovating e-learning mobile app” should be functional across multiple platforms. Submissions are due by September 15, 2010 and so far there are only ten teams signed up. So my question for you is:

If you could develop a mobile device application, what would it do?
