Internet and Computer Use
Belmont University provides access to the Internet and e-mail to
all its students and employees who comply with the Internet Use
Policy. The university expects that all those who exercise this
privilege will do so responsibly. It has therefore developed this
policy statement to assist Internet users in the appropriate use of
network technology. This statement is intended to address the
following usage situations:•
Use of university-owned computing resources (i.e.
computer labs, computers at workstations) by students, employees or
guests of the university.•
Use of Belmont resources to access information on the
Internet and campus e-mail.•
Use of Belmont resources to provide information to other
Internet users (via a Web page, etc.).All current Belmont faculty,
staff and students may obtain an Internet account through
Information Technology Services (ITS). The university reserves the
right to exercise its discretion in limiting access to its
computing resources.
Users will be responsible for any use of those accounts by others
to whom access has been given. The university recommends that users
change their passwords periodically to prevent unauthorized use of
their accounts.
When a student is no longer enrolled in the university or when an
employee is no longer employed by the university, Belmont reserves
the right to delete that individual’s account and/or any
personal pages on the World Wide Web operated by that
individual.
