The feature that all these tools, websites <strong>and</strong> services havein common is that they allow conversations <strong>and</strong> online interactions betweengroups of people. These guidelines are not intended to deter individualsfrom using these communication tools but are necessary to help protect staff<strong>and</strong> students <strong>and</strong> to prevent them damaging the college either inadvertentlyor intentionally.All students should be aware that failure to follow these guidelines couldlead to disciplinary action, <strong>and</strong> in more serious cases could be consideredgross misconduct <strong>and</strong> may lead to exclusion.Leeds City College is committed to the responsible use of social media.
