ACAT is the acronym for the Hope College Academic Computing Advisory
Team. ACAT's task is to assist the Provost and his Deans' Council in
setting goals regarding the use of computing technology in furthering
the academic program of the college. It is also charged with helping to
implement such goals. To this end the team is comprised of faculty
members, a representative from the Deans' Council, and staff from the
Computing and Information Techology department (affectionately known as
