Here are initial answers to the above areas of focus.

B. The points of contact for the center are myself and Kim Preece. We can create or supply photos for that section.

C. This should link to the Network Systems & Security program page. We may actually say on the Center website that the Network & Cloud Systems Administration program is a National Security Agency designated Center of Academic Excellence in Cybersecurity Program of Study.

D. We could list all faculty that teach in the Network Systems & Security program 鈥� Myself, Scott Nicholas, Gary Brafford鈥�could even list adjuncts I suppose鈥�Branden Richmond and Trey Balser as well. They were part of my submission for the PoS, so it would make sense.

E. I would love this section to be easily updated by me (or you) to keep this section current. Somethings here will be somewhat static. For example, we have a cybersecurity club, we are member of the National Cyber League, and also the NCAE Cyber Games. While guest speakers, the West Virginia Cybersecurity Expo, and other current events may be timely and topical.

F. This section may bleed in a bit with the current and timely events of part E.

G. This might be a section we defer to Gordon on for links and information.

H. See part E again.

I. This area would be representative of our IT Advisory Committee. We could get a list of the companies that are regular members, or potential get their company logos like UCCS has on their CAE Center page.
