Campus data policies don't apply to me."
Editor's Notes
- Our archivist = social science/humanities; expertise on digital curation and preservation. The Assc VP of Research, also the Research Integrity Officer =prof of mathematics; campus climate, research expectations, and grant administration. The LAS IT director =“Research IT” which works to solve infrastructure and skill gap problems last year. ISO = draft our data classification policy, digital security and “forensics storage locker” housing legal evidence when cases of misconduct occur…
- Personas were developed for website design and application development (user-centered design). They’re ‘archetypes’, not real people.

No Persona is perfect – in fact – flaws are often added to provide more complex scenarios for testing. With the help of the working group, and some friends, there are 6 Personas from different disciplines that are nearly complete. Here’s an example…
- A sample draft the persona - Dr. Cleonei Silva, Art Historian – formatted for distribution as a handout Left: sketch of the persona’s demographics, skills, and attitude. Goal and Frustrations frame their actions and motivations. Descriptive paragraphs provide the details of their research, habits, and workflows.
