Can I be held in violation if somethings posted on-line (like a picture on Facebook.com)?
Information posted to sites such as Facebook.com, mySpace.com and the like can be very damaging to a student’s reputation and may show the student in an unflattering light. The Office of Judicial Affairs does not search on-line for pictures, video, postings, etc. of students violating policies, nor does the Office charge students solely on such on-line information. However, if a member of the University community brings information of alleged violations to the attention of the Office of Judicial Affairs, it is possible that this information will be forwarded to the appropriate University office for further investigation. If that subsequent investigation determines signs of a violation, then charges may be applied and the information originally sent to the Office of Judicial Affairs could be used as part of the information presented during a hearing.
