Re: Cyber-Bullying

["Shamblin, Quinn" <qrs () BU EDU>]

To Roger's point, we specifically avoid calling out a particular form or vector.  Our thought is that bad behavior is 
bad behavior, regardless of the particular avenue.  I have recently been reviewing a lot of the AUPs from schools in 
the same category as mine and I have come across such statements several times, so it seems a common approach.  This is 
not a quote, but it sums up what I have often seen: "Just because you are hazing, harassing or bullying through a 
computer doesn't change the fact that that is what you are doing."

Can't you use your non cyber policies?  Harassment is harassment...why would the method be a distinguishable factor 
that would make it allowable in one format when it would not be allowed in another?

Hello All,

Does anyone have a specific policy or specifically mention Cyber-Bullying in their policies?  IT Policies or otherwise?

Thanks,
