Featured Columns professionals. Encouraged by the summit, my focus in this column will be the role of the Information Systems community in collaborative efforts within the computing discipline and particularly computing education; general results of the Summit will be reported in a much more comprehensive way through other channels. IS was represented at the summit by three different organizations: Mary Granger represented the Association for Information Systems (AIS) as its VP for Education, Dave Chatterjee represented the Society for Information Management (SIM) as an active academic member and the President of SIM s Atlanta Chapter, and I was involved through the ACM as one of the members of the Summit organizing committee. It was very important to have the perspectives of AIS and SIM present at the summit; many thanks belong to all participants of the meeting who volunteered their expertise, time and efforts. In general, the conversations at the Summit provided support for several general observations regarding computing education in specific and the role of Information Systems in the broader computing education community in particular. In the rest of the column, I will both outline these observations and invite IS academics to action based on them. First,
