Whitlock Receives Chancellors Award
for Work with UB/WNY-HPNVI

... and delivers a sermon on the public benefits of networked video. 

  5/16/2001

He claims that Internet videoconferencing and streams are not depersonalizing intermediating technologies, but rather a means to provide highly personalized visual and visceral human connections, where none could previously have been possible before.  This optimizes the delivery of education, healthcare and government services across spatial and temporal barriers. Steer clear of this man if you're a skeptic without much time!

Whitlock, pleased as punch, at the Chancellor's Award Ceremony. His 10-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, is taking the picture and he always smiles like that when she's around and he's surrounded by friends.

Here he is accepting the award from Vice Provost of Academic Affairs and Dean of the Graduate School Kerry Grant. Normally pallid from his winter buried in back-rooms developing IP video systems, he's still blushing over the citations from Lisa Stephens, Ted Phelps, Bob Dentan and others that were read in the preceding minutes.

Uh oh! They made the mistake of offering Whitlock the podium after presenting the award. Here he is, telling the President, Provost, and senior academic and administrative officers all about the future of networked video in higher education and public service. Resident Zealot, indeed. Give him a minute for thanks and he takes ten for a sermon!
