Dartmouth College (including all undergraduate and graduate programs) is
dedicated to the missions of teaching, education, research, and public service.
In support of these missions, Dartmouth provides access to electronic
information resources, including networks, software, and equipment, to its
students, faculty, and staff.
The Dartmouth College Information Technology Policy (the "Policy") contains
Dartmouth's philosophy and requirements governing student, faculty, and staff
use of its information technology resources. Dartmouth College expects each
member of the community to use Dartmouth's information technology resources,
including connections to resources external to Dartmouth that are made possible
by Dartmouth's information technology resources, responsibly, ethically, and in
compliance with the Policy, relevant laws, and all contractual obligations to
third parties. The use of Dartmouth's information technology resources is a
privilege. If a member of the community fails to comply with this Policy or
relevant laws and contractual obligations, that member's privilege to access
and use Dartmouth's information technology resources may be revoked. The use of
Dartmouth's information technology resources to send communications to
Dartmouth or non-Dartmouth persons or entities typically identifies the sender
as belonging to the Dartmouth community. Each member of the community should
therefore recognize that any such communication may reflect on how Dartmouth is
perceived by not only the Dartmouth community, but also the public at large.
For more information, see Account
and Naming Procedures.
By adopting the Policy, Dartmouth recognizes that all Dartmouth students,
faculty, and staff are bound not only by the Policy, but also by local, state,
and federal laws relating to electronic media, copyrights, privacy, and
security. Other Dartmouth policies that relate to this Policy and also apply to
Dartmouth College students, faculty, and staff (collectively, the "community")
include the Dartmouth College
Copyright Policy & Guidelines on copyrighted materials, the Dartmouth
College Patent
Policy, the Dartmouth College student
handbooks and faculty
handbooks, and the Dartmouth College Exempt and Non-exempt Staff Handbooks.
Each member of the Dartmouth community is expected to be familiar with the
relevant foregoing policies.
