University branding on Google Sites

Hello,Some years ago our University made Google Sites available to our staff, faculty, and students. At that point, I coded a University branded header and footer and wrote instructions for use. Ultimately, the powers that be decided not to distribute this resource saying that Google could change their code at any time, disrupting the code I wrote and making a mess of any site that used these assets. (There was also some concern over putting our branding on a google.com address, but I'm less…See More

Terms of service vs university policy

Hello,At the University of Minnesota, we're struggling with use of social networking sites and how that use does or doesn't jive with our Web publishing and branding policies. Ning, in particular, is a fairly hot topic and, based on the excerpt from their terms of service, copied below, we feel we cannot use Ning without violating our own policy. Our marks are protected and cannot be used without permission. Ning says it will use them at their discretion.Do any of you have college or university…See More

Office Reservation software

I've been tasked with finding a software tool that helps manage the onboarding and exit process of new and departing faculty. Ultimately i would like this software to management faculty office interms of when resources can be removed from a particular office and when a new faculty member can be moved in with the necessary resources. This tool should have notifications and alerts so there are no conflicts with someone being removed from a office and someone being placed in a office. Does anyone…See More
