APU Look had groups of screens for many roles at the University
Extremely Efficient
During the first dozen years, Ken Williams directed a very efficient department of Information Services and Technology. In a typical year, expenses hovered between two and one percent of gross, and APU was recognized by several groups as being a leader in computer services. At conferences, people were in awe about our low costs. Ken had the strong support and loyalty from Cliff Hamlow, VP of Finance. Cliff had amazing insights and the courage to say no. There was a Provost and another VP in those days. APU was fun; we accomplished a lot. See Work is Fun
Adjunct Computer Science Professor
In 1995, I taught a course called "Re-Designing the Corporation: Internal Entreprenuership"
Over the next eighteen years, I taught about a dozen other courses for Wendell Scarborough, Thomas Plew, and Sam Sambasivim. The early courses were C programming language, GUI screen design and standards, and software engineering. In today's jargon, one might say that we taught Agile methods. In reality, we taught pattern recognition and cost-effectiveness.
