Ok. One more clarification. I have contacted General Council. The first woman I spoke to wasn’t sure. I’m just asking, very simply, if anyone else has had this issue come up, and knows, for certain. Again, I am waiting on general council’s call back. I just find it hard to believe that, of all the network admin’s on campus, no one has asked this question or found the answer already. So I thought I’d ask. -dak On 9/14/10 3:25 PM, "Don Bosman" <[log in to unmask]> wrote: This type of issue HAS to pass muster with the appropriate campus legal representatives. Signatures on users agreements makes that agreement part of the persons contract. Subject to all the legal ramifications of a contract. No one on this list is legally or contractually qualified to give you the answer you seek. Not even Dave Gift.
