Applies to all University of St Augustine for Health Sciences StudentsGuidelines for Internet Use• The University provides individual Internet email accounts for students, should they desire one.• Failure to use the Internet appropriately, legally and responsibly will result in the violator(s) beingreferred to the respective Program Director.Use of File Transfer Between Home and Work ComputersThe Internet has become more dangerous than ever. Virus applications and malware are now easilyhidden on commonly used web pages. Internet criminals have devised methods for infecting yourcomputer when you visit a URL that you may have found to be safe previously. For this reason it hasbecome necessary to require those who transfer files from home to work (via email, USB drive, CD, etc)to have a good antivirus/antimalware application installed on their home computers. That software mustbe kept up-to-date. Acceptable products include:-Norton Antivirus 2009 or Internet Security 2009-McAfee Internet Security 2009 or Total Security 2009-Avira Premium or Premium Security Suite or AntVir Personal (free)-Avast Professional Edition or Home Edition (free)The IT department also strongly recommends you allow Windows updates to occur on a regular basis,turn on your firewall and check frequently to insure all antivirus updates are occurring on a regular basis.You may also be interested in trying a different browser such as Firefox. Information on this may befound in a tutorial on the myUSA portal IT tab.Wireless Internet Access PolicyWireless access is available in certain areas of the campus, though coverage and up-time is notguaranteed. If you have a wireless network adapter card or a newer laptop computer with a mobile-readyprocessor, you will be able to access the internet while on-campus. The university wireless networkoperates in the same fashion as any commercial wireless access point; it is not secure.A user will not be allowed access to the wireless network unless it can be shown that active and up-todatevirus software has been installed on the user’s computer. It is also a user’s responsibility to keep theiroperating system up to date with all security patches and service packs. Firewall software is alsorecommended. Prevention is better than cure and by following these simple guidelines the wirelessnetwork can remain safe for fellow users.When a user signs on to the wireless network, they are accepting the rules and regulations of theuniversity AUP. Additionally they are accepting responsibility for all security breaches or virus damagethat may occur to their computer while accessing the university wireless network. The technical help deskand personnel at the university are not available to evaluate or fix student computers.Social Networking-Acceptable UseSocial networking online tools and services include Flickr, YouTube, Google Video, Facebook andothers. It is very easy to create accounts for these services, upload content and then tag the content. Thetagging makes the networking possibilities very powerful which may draw many viewers.Many students, educators, employees and administrators are aware of the great potential these socialnetworking services may provide; however, they also recognize the potential dangers of such services.The following are guidelines for use of social networking tools.Employees should limit use of social networking to their personal computers as most sites are known tohave malicious software associated with at least part of the website. It is also not considered appropriateto use company time for social networking.• DO use the computers for research, projects or to connect with others in a positive manner.• DON'T search for illegal, crude, rude, crass and inappropriate things.• DON'T harass others. No one wins in an online harassment situation.• DON'T copyright, infringe or plagiarize, or download anything illegally. Think about it.University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences 44
Applies to all University of St Augustine for Health Sciences Students• IF you have to wonder if the site you want to use is appropriate, it probably isn't.• IF you should happen upon a site (perhaps you typed the link wrong) and the site has grosscontent, make a note of the URL and leave the site immediately. Report this to the IT departmentthru the myUSA portal IT tab.Violation of the above policies will result in a referral to the Professional Misconduct Committee or theUniversity Harassment Committee and/or other appropriate measures.Use of Phone SystemUse of the phone system should be limited to business needs only. An exception to this would be anyemergency phone calls (both placing and receiving). Do not make personal long distance phone callsusing the University phone system.Policy on Peer-to-Peer (P2P) File SharingThe University of St. Augustine is committed to avoiding misuse of its computer network, including useof the computer network to violate the Copyright Law of the United States. All students, faculty, andstaff should have a basic understanding of the Copyright Law. Please refer to employee, faculty andstudent handbooks for more information on the university copyright policy.Campus computer networks have been popular sources of reproduction and distribution of illegal music,movies, television shows, pictures, and software through the use of peer-to-peer (P2) networks. When theUniversity of St. Augustine receives a formal complaint from a copyright holder, we notify the individualinvolved and pass along any information received from the copyright holder to that individual. We do notsupply any information to the copyright holder about the individual involved unless a valid subpoena ispresented.Active efforts are in place to prohibit the use of illegal file sharing and the University of St. Augustineemploys Open DNS filtering which blocks access to all known file distributions sites.EMAIL NETIQUETTEEmail can be an easy and convenient way to communicate with faculty and staff. You should rememberthat emails can be easily misinterpreted. In order to insure that your message is sent in a professional andthoughtful manner, please consider following proper netiquette and use these guidelines when composingyour email.1. Proof your emails:a. For spellingb. Grammatical accuracyc. Use of vocabularyd. Composition2. Don’t email your professor asking for notes or handouts that you have misplaced. If you missclass or lose your notes, contact your peers. Inform a friend in the class that you will needher/him to pick up any handouts and to any changes to the syllabus that you will miss because ofan absence.3. Don’t email your professor asking (or complaining) about your grades. If you want to discuss thegrade on an assignment, make an appointment to speak with your professor or contact themduring office hours. Also, don’t email your professors asking if they have finished grading aparticular assignment. Instructors will return papers as soon as they are graded. The same goesfor final grades. Professors are not permitted to inform individual student of their final grades viaemail nor should they be expected to explain how a final grade was calculated. That’s thepurpose of providing grading polices on the syllabi.4. Think about what you are asking for before emailing. Make sure that the answer to your questionisn’t readily available elsewhere.5. Treat your faculty/staff (and fellow students) with respect, even in email. Use your professors’proper title unless you are specifically invited to do otherwise.University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences 45
