EUP for FACULTY & STAFF
Moses Brown School (MBS) provides access to a variety of hardware and software, as well as to the school’s campus network and the Internet. The Internet is largely ungoverned, and Moses Brown School requires each individual to rely upon his/her own strongest virtues of integrity and responsible decision-making when using these vast resources. The school believes that the opportunities for worldwide interaction and international materials far outweigh the risks inherent in locating controversial and/or offensive materials that may not be consistent with the expectations of the school. The effectiveness of campus services depends on users not altering configurations, appearances, or software setups on any computer or other technology. This is particularly critical in shared facilities. Each individual is responsible for maintaining the integrity of the electronic mail system and for all mail and attachments sent or received under his/her own account. Receiving or sending email with inappropriate content, pornography, and/or text-encoded files that could cause potential danger to school equipment or files is a violation of the EUP. Agreement to this policy is a condition of employment at MBS. If an individual is unsure about what constitutes permissible behavior, the individual holds full responsibility for talking with a technology administrator. It should be understood that technology administrators reserve the right to access all files, Internet logs, and electronic mail. Individuals using on or off-campus technology in a manner that causes harm to our community will be in violation of the EUP, and appropriate disciplinary measures will be taken. Changes to the EUP may be made periodically. Any changes will be posted on the Tech Dept. Web Site: http://mbtech.mosesbrown.org
