[Athen] Responsibility of departments linking to faculty person sites

[Joseph Sherman]

I’d think it depends on the content and context of the faculty site. If it is a math professor’s personal page, where the page is not under the edu domain, detailing his love of opera or hobbies, then I probably wouldn’t worry about it. However if it contains course related material or information students need to acquire for a course, the student must receive the same benefits or service as other students.

Subject: [Athen] Responsibility of departments linking to faculty person sites

Hello All:

Does anyone know what the responsibility of academic departments are when linking to faculty personal sites, which may not be accessible. What is considered the best practice and is it the department’s responsibility for ensuring external resources are accessible?

Thanks,
Howard
