The NET+ ServiceNow Service Advisory Board met in October to discuss the makeup of the Board, this upcoming newsletter, as well as format and details of the November meeting in which we will hold open office hours.  General discussion was also had around a number of community services the Board is looking to advise on, most notably the concept of an Internet2 community ServiceNow instance to showcase best practices in use today as well as how different tools could be used in a higher education setting.  If you would like to have input into this, please contact us at netplus@internet2.edu with your comments.

SNow Higher Education Group - Mailing List

This mailing list is for ServiceNow customers or potential customers who are members of higher education institutions.

In that context Karen Van Dusen (Carnegie Mellon University) and Hillary Rosenfeld (Boston University) maintain this list for anyone who is a ServiceNow customer and in higher education. Topics typically range from ServiceNow implementation and adoption strategies in higher ed to networking planning for events like ServiceNow's Knowledge conferences.
