I regret to inform you that Robert Teague, Director of ETS Academic Computing at MCC from March 4, 1991 through February 19, 1998, passed away on Tuesday, April 22. Bob died peacefully at his home in Utah following a year-long battle with cancer.
At MCC, Bob was responsible for establishing a department of academic computing, coordinating instructional computing needs, and designing our professional development training program. Bob believed that technology is a tool and a means to achieve student success. His awareness of technology and his understanding of current trends in technology helped to establish MCC's leadership role within SUNY.
Highlights of Bob's time at MCC include his advocacy that new, high-end computers should be used for students first; his contributions in designing and deploying our institutional Technology Plan; his expertise as a presenter at League conferences solidifying MCC's reputation for technological excellence; and his exceptional ability to identify and support talent and energy in his staff.
Bob is survived by his wife, Carol. Expressions of sympathy may be sent to:
Mrs. Carol Teague
