System Administrator Leadership Team (SALT)

The Systems Administrator Leadership Team (SALT) provides a forum open to all George Mason University system administrators. A system administrator is defined as the one responsible for the maintenance and configuration of one or more computer servers.

SALT meetings are held regularly on the first Thursday of every month of the year (except for January, July and August) on Zoom. The meetings provide an opportunity for sysadmins to share their ideas, expertise, and best practices, and socialize to build a stronger technical and security-conscientious community. Agendas and topics are provided to the those on the list serve before the meeting.
