[Alumni-chat] Re: the latest non-news and further admissions sabotage

[Matthew Baya]

In response to the e-mails about Linda Sirk's using someone elses  
computer without their permission as detailed at http://recordonline.org/2007/12/08/dude-where%e2%80%99s-my-application/

I respond with:

http://www.antioch-college.edu/Campus/academic/AC_Computing_Policy.pdf

Some highlights:

" It is never permitted to use another person’s computer authorization  
for any purpose or to provide your own authorization to another.
It is never permitted to access someone else’s work without explicit  
permission.
It is not permitted to engage in any activity that would harass others  
or impede their work.  "

So Linda Sirk just violated the Antioch College Computing Policy which  
is an ADCIL approved policy. Not to mention the Honor Code. What does  
it take to get someone fired or at least put on probation these days?  
or are admins untouchable these days and those pesky policies only  
apply to students? Can someone get this info to someone on ADCIL to  
raise it as an agenda item?
