Statement of Policy regarding appropriate use and content.

Appropriate postings to the Weekly Message Digest are those that concern information of general interest relating to the professional and scientific activities of the clinical, research, and administrative staff at DGSOM. These include announcements of events (seminars, meetings, etc.) staff or organizational changes, information technologies, statements of department or University policy, etc.

Postings regarding the availability of surplus or under utilized equipment or scientific apparatus are appropriate, but such postings will be placed under a separate section, the "Classifieds" category.

This policy statement will be revised and updated as necessary to clarify appropriate use.
