2 items I need to be successful:<br />
• Sharing information about programs and best practices globally. This helps us have deeper conversations with professors when we can talk<br />
to about what other schools have done successfully.<br />
• A place where we can see a 360° view of everything/everyone that SAS has touched at an university beyond licensing; what students have<br />
applied for what programs, what professors are teaching, who had attend what SAS events, who has used what resources, who are SAS<br />
authors etc. This would really help us know what is happening at each school where that information is not aggregated together in place<br />
today.<br />
