Information Services : Web Services Policies
Development Notes

Information Services maintains a permanent high-speed connection to the Internet and several Web servers as part of our ongoing mission to “…meet the scholarly, information, and instructional needs of our
students, faculty, and staff, and insofar as possible, to share these resources with the broader scholarly community
.” Access to the Web is available from all networked computers on campus including office, lab and library computers. Wireless web access is available in most campus buildings. Students can also connect their personal systems to our network from their residence hall rooms. Before a computer can be connected from a residence hall, it must first be registered.

Personal Web Pages
Every person at Kalamazoo College who has a network account may create a personal home page on people.kzoo.edu. Get more information on creating personal Web pages here.

Kalamazoo College Official Web Site
An official Web presence is maintained at www.kzoo.edu.  The purpose of this site is for communication with external audiences (such as prospective students and their families, alumni, donors, and the general public). Content is maintained by Web Services working under the auspices of the Web Executive Committee and in many cases is linked to departmental resources.

Departmental Web Sites

Appropriate and recommended uses of the official Web site include explanations of departmental services, dissemination of news and information, course pages developed by faculty, and information about official student organizations.
