POLICY & STANDARDS

Introduction
The Morehouse College's presence on the World Wide Web (http://www.morehouse.edu) is essential to its mission of teaching, research, creative work, and public service. The College’s website provides key external and internal constituencies access to timely and accurate information about the College and its individual offices, divisions and programs. Faculty, staff and students are encouraged to publish freely and openly on the World Wide Web within the constraints and guidelines of existing laws and policies.

Thus, the College's web policy seeks to establish standards and guidelines that will:

• support the vision, mission, goals, and traditional academic values of the college;
• assist web publishers in developing sites that comply with college policies, rules, and regulations, and local, State, and Federal laws; and
• facilitate the official business of the College and appropriate online transactions.
