Campus-Wide Information System (CWIS) Policies, Standards, and Procedures

The documents linked below represent the work of the St. Olaf College CWIS Committee, appointed by the Dean of the College in late 1995 to establish policies, standards, and procedures for the operation and management of the St. Olaf College World Wide Web site and public electronic information distribution systems.

Two of the documents, The St. Olaf College Campus-Wide Information System (CWIS) Policies and St. Olaf WWW Server Standards, have been approved by the Academic Computing Policy Board and the Dean of the College and represent current official policy.
