Questions regarding AUPs, Social Networking & School Email Adrresses

Dear Colleagues,

As we continue to examine the positives and negatives of social networking
sites in our efforts to educate our students and further refine our AUP
policies, I invite you to consider and respond to the following questions.
Please feel free to forward excerpts from your school's AUPs that address
the issues in question.

- Does your school's AUP address social networking sites?
- Do you block access to social networking sites? If so, why and how?
- Do you forbid students from using their official school email addresses
to become members of social networking and/or other non school-related
sites?
- Has there been any discussion within your school about leveraging social
networking sites for alumni and/or other purposes?

Thank you in advance for your help with these questions. As always, I
will be happy to share the collective wisdom that may result from your
responses.

Regards,

Steve
