Active Directory Steering Committee/Enterprise IT Committee (EITC) is a technical, infrastructure/architecture, project/issues based group.

It is a small group that represents both the technical depth available on the campus and the operating diversity of the colleges, university administrative units and hospital. The EITC is evolving into a broader based group whose agenda will depend on the nature of IT changes occurring on campus.
