Discussion:
- Beth: Document on CFI Networking distributed and discussed.
- Bruce: NetApp disk/price sharing. As a way to share the $12,000
cost among the Engineering departments, and to distribute the basic
90 Gigabytes of disk space between the departments, undergrad enrolment for
Fall98 and Winter99 was chosen. The following table was distributed...

The cost for departments to purchase additional disk space was
set at $188 per gigabyte. Management Sciences must be added to
the table based on something other than undergraduate enrolment (ManSci
has no undergraduate program).
General feeling was that the costs were small, and that the method
chosen to share costs/space was acceptable.
