"Administrators have encouraged -- and in some
cases required -- faculty members to create and
maintain Web pages, start electronic-mail lists,
and take advantage of high tech language labs."
When this increased demand is not matched by
increased support staffing, faculty's enthusiasm
and commitment may dissolve. "If colleges don't
beef up their technical staffs, some worry,
professors may just decide to stick with
chalkboards and transparencies -- no matter how
much money has been spent on machines and
software"
