Dartmouth expects all members of the community to be aware of how
intellectual property laws, regulations, and policies apply to the electronic
environment and to respect the property of others. For more information, please
see the Dartmouth College Copyright Policy, the Dartmouth College Policy and
Guidelines on Copyrighted Materials, the Dartmouth College Patent Policy, the
Dartmouth College Sources manual, the Dartmouth College Academic Honor
Principle, the Dartmouth College faculty handbooks, and the Student Handbook.
Dartmouth's DMCA Compliance Officer (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) is

No member of the community shall use another's content or property in a way
that violates copyright law or infringes upon the rights held by others. The
unauthorized duplication or use of any software that is licensed or protected
by copyright may constitute violations of civil and criminal law, and is
prohibited by this policy.
Members of the community should recognize that placing their work in the
electronic public domain may result in widespread distribution of their work
and could jeopardize their rights to that work. You should assume that works
communicated through the network are subject to copyright unless there is a
specific disclaimer to the contrary.
All computer software used by members of the Dartmouth community must be
properly and legally licensed and used. Dartmouth College licenses the use of
many different software programs from vendors and developers. In addition,
employees and students purchase software with licensing and use
agreements. All Dartmouth employees and students are expected to use
software in accordance with the appropriate licensing agreements. Failure
to do so can result in legal liability, both to Dartmouth and to the
individual. The fact that Dartmouth College is an educational institution
does not confer rights to copy or use software in any way not authorized by the
provisions of licensing and use agreements.
