| | ARL 236: An Introduction to Ithaka |
 | | Editor's note: Ithaka is a recently launched not-for-profit organization supported by the Mellon, Hewlett, and Niarchos Foundations, which aims to accelerate the development of sustainable initiatives that use new technologies to benefit higher education. |
 | | For example, Ithaka's president, general counsel, vice president for finance, and other staff meet regularly with the incubated organizations to discuss both strategic and operational issues, and often they can share valuable previous experience or help to make useful connections between the incubated entities and other relevant projects or organizations. |
 | | Ithaka's research group aims to address specific needs for information and analysis for Ithaka, its incubating entities and affiliates, and others to whom Ithaka may provide strategic support. |
