EDUCAUSE is the association for higher education ICT.  It's an outstanding organization to track, and (I think) a model for a higher ed advocacy group.  (Were the Association of Research Libraries to be such!) 

Every year, EDUCAUSE publishes a list of the top issues of attention by campus ICT leaders.  Here's this year's list. 

1. Security
2. Administrative/ERP/Information Systems
3. Funding IT
4. Infrastructure
5. Identity/Access Management
6. Disaster Recovery / Business Continuity
7. Governance, Organization, and Leadership
8. Change Management
9. E-Learning / Distributed Teaching and Learning
10. Staffing / HR Management / Training
