We're also putting together a "best practices" guide for the University of Florida as part of a communications/marketing sub-sub committee. (Actually, there might be more "subs" there.)
Our Acceptable Use Policy is pretty straight forward, so ins...

I agree, this isn't about free speech as much as it is about the university appearing to take a position on an issue. Comments like that should be posted on students' personal accounts. Actually, I don't think students should even be managing the ...
We have a dirt cheap ($10) small licence install at the moment, as far as I am aware .edu has to pay a 50% discount rate on standard pricing. Open source projects, charities etc. get a free ride but not HE.
Hi,
If you have a Facebook Page or Twitter account, does 1 person do all the postings? Or do you give the log in to various members of the team?
Looking for industry standards because I have been asked by the management to be the sole poster of t...
We're hiring a web developer in the Office of Web Communications at the University of Oregon. Here's the link to the job ad, http://hr.uoregon.edu/jobs/classified.php?id=3250. We'd love to hear from you.
At the University of Dayton, we've been handling all of our student on-boarding activities online in some form since 1999. The most recent iteration of our Virtual Orientation web application was last refreshed (from a technical standpoint) in 200...

What you're dealing with here is context of speech.
The EDU facebook page has a context. That context is that of a neutral instit...

Yes, I am referring to the World Series comments. How tight should we be pulling the reigns in? How do you balance freedom of speech while still allowing for that fresh student perspective?
I went to look at your university's page and I wonder if you were referencing the world series comment. My personal opinion is that when you post as the university, you have should be EXTREMELY cautious in making polarizing statements. You can't a...

Are you paying for JIRA, or did they give you a free license as an edu?
Our Facebook is managed by a work study in the web department. We want the postings to be fresh and honest from a student perspective. One of our alumni was concerned about what he considers to be a personal posting other than stating simple facts...
Anyone using Confluence and/or Jira at their institution?
We are in early stages of using Confluence as a wiki and collaborative project space, maybe evolving into a complete intranet solution as we wean ourselves (and untangle) off MS Sharepoint...
Dan,
My understanding is that Datatel has two products called ActiveCampus -- yes, confusing.
One is an enterprise CMS called ActiveAdmissions/ActiveCampus. And AA/AC is based on MS .NET/SQL technology. The other ActiveCampus as your Dan's subje...
