Policy on Student Use of Internet Resources
The following policy is regarding student use of certain internet resources provided at the Johnson School. It is intended to enable responsible use of these services by students and student groups. The text of the policy follows. If you have any questions about this policy, please contact Dean Dove or Larry Fresinski of the Technology Services staff.
There has been an upsurge of interest by Johnson School students in the use of various internet services to promote the exchange of information between students here and students at other business schools, and also between MBA students and the internet world at large (potentially including alumni and corporations). The potential of this kind of information exchange is very large and exciting.
There is also a risk to use of these services that must be managed. The administration of the Johnson School has a responsibility to ensure that the uses of the internet services that we provide are professional, responsible and reflect well on the School. To that end the School is promulgating a policy on the use of the internet resources by students. The intent of this policy is to enable professional and responsible use of the Johnson School internet servers by students while making it clear that use of these services is a privilege granted by the School.
Policy on Student Use of Johnson School Internet Resources
July 15, 2003
- Students use of Johnson School servers to provide information to the internet via World Wide Web pages and E-Mail Lists is a privilege accorded to matriculated students at the school that carries with it the responsibility for students to adhere to the highest standards of professional behavior. Further, it is a privilege provided only if the resources are available.
- Permission must be obtained from the Chief Information Officer for individual students or student groups to provide information to the internet via Johnson School servers. This permission will be granted only for activities that are deemed consistent with the mission and goals of the school.
- All student-managed World Wide Web pages must include, at the beginning, a standard statement (or graphic) indicating that the page or folder is a student-managed initiative and does not represent official information provided by Cornell University or the Johnson School.
- The administration of the Johnson School maintains the right and responsibility to monitor student use of the information resources mentioned, to make suggestions for improvement or change, and to revoke or abridge a student's or group's privilege to use these information resources should the highest professional standards not be met, should the use of the resources not be consistent with the mission and goals of the School, or should resource limitations make provision of these services uneconomic.
