Guidelines for talking about courses, faculty, and students

  • Do not demean people
    • If you have positive or neutral things to post about profs, that's fine
    • Negative reviews of profs and rants are not allowed. Link to the prof's Rate My Professors page instead
  • Be conscientious about posting contact information
    • Instead, link to the subject's personal or professional webpage, if available
  • Do not post or link to copyrighted material without permission
    • This includes, but is not limited to: pirated textbook links, current or previous homework/projects/quizzes/tests, etc.
    • You may indicate the existence or non-existence of these resources; just don't point out where they are.
    • Get permission before posting current or previous course syllabi, as they contain contact info of profs (and TAs!)
      • You may cite information from the syllabus without posting the syllabus
