Policy No: CR001

Policy Statement

The college recognizes blogging as an important communications tool. The purpose of this policy is to define and govern the use of official FIT blogs for communication and promotion of FIT-related information in support of its educational mission and strategic goals.

Such blogs, however, are subject to copyright and intellectual property laws as well as other FIT policies.

• FIT community members (e.g., employees, students) managing and contributing to FIT Blogs
