Guidelines for Use

The purpose of the College’s official social media accounts is to provide students, fans, followers, and friends information about our programs, departments, groups, and events.

The College is dedicated to providing a meaningful educational experience for all of our students and we value diversity and inclusion within our community. Visitor posts and comments that are shared on our official accounts do not necessarily represent the school’s views, but we recognize that a thriving academic community is not possible without our students, fans, followers, and friends sharing their thoughts freely with one another on our official social media accounts.

To ensure the interactions on our official social media accounts further meaningful dialogue, we reserve the right to monitor the conversations by hiding comments and/or posts that are or contain:

• Off-topic content, including, but not limited to, spam and similar comments promoting a product, service, or entity unrelated to the discussion;
• Personal attacks on individuals, threats, or discriminatory harassment;
• Illegal activity or encouragement of illegal activity;
• Information that could compromise the safety of the college’s staff or students;
• Political statements, including comments that endorse or oppose political candidates or ballot propositions;
• Profanity and/or obscenity.
