Policy for Web Hosting
The Center for Law and Computers (CLC) is responsible for
maintaining the web services of Chicago-Kent College of Law.
To ensure the integrity and reliability of the web server the CLC
has adopted the following guidelines.
General
- Web page authors must agree to abide by all rules, regulations,
and guidelines as set forth by Chicago-Kent College of Law/IIT
and the CLC. Please see
IIT's
Acceptable Use Policy for more information.
- Failure to abide by all rules, regulations, and guidelines as
set forth by Chicago-Kent College of Law and the CLC will result
in the removal of files from the web server without notice.
- The CLC is responsible for the server only. The CLC will be
responsible for the maintenance, structure, and security of the
web server directories. The CLC is not responsible for any web
page content or hyperlinks. Links from Chicago-Kent's main pages
to the organization/department home page are maintained by
Public Affairs
- All departments, organizations, faculty, staff, and students
requesting web server space must register with the CLC. Forms
and instructions for this purpose are available in Room 540 (help
desk) and on-line.
- Student organizations will be limited to two (2) web editors only.
Accounts will be created only for those listed on the registration
form.
- The
Unix Manager will review and approve/deny all requests for
web server space.
- The primary contact as listed on the registration form will
be informed of any problems with the web page. If the primary
or secondary contact cannot be reached, the web page will
be deactivated.
- Global login IDs are not permitted. Web editors
will receive a unique ID with which to maintain the
web pages. Upon registration, the user will be
required to set their password before making changes to any web
pages. The
Unix Manager will contact you when your site is
registered.
- Accounts that have not been used for three (3) months will be
deleted. No notice will be sent to the user.
- Individual student web pages are allowed (see item #4). Students
who create their own individual web page are responsible for
the creation and maintenance of their own web pages. The CLC does
not provide training for web page creation and/or design;
however, the CLC can provide students with information about
training programs offered by outside vendors.

is responsible for the actual broadcast.

case-by-case basis. Student organizations should email Media
Services with detailed information about the proposed
program including date, time, speaker, program topic, etc.
CLC staff will not consider space requests without approval
from Media Services.
- External organizations are generally not permitted to do live
broadcasts at the downtown campus.

1 year.
- After 1 year, the broadcast will be archived on the web server
for one additional year.

total of 2 years from the initial broadcast. No notice will be
sent regarding the removal of files.

- CGI scripts are now limited to the Admissions Office, Financial Aid
Office, Institute for Law and the Workplace, Office of Continuing
Legal and Professional Education, Audio Visual department, and
Public Affairs.
- Access to CGI scripts by other departments and internal
organizations will be determined on a case-by-case basis.
