Amen. IT at large universities is a tremendous job of work, and far too frequently is it done well. My girlfriend is a librarian at a large state university, and they find themselves constantly butting heads with the IT department over issues like university firewalls and AV blocking inter-library communication tools. Universities are not companies, and trying run IT as if they were is nonsense.
