Maintaining a site on Aurora.wells.edu
A server for self-maintained Web pages
Statement
of Responsibility
Aurora.wells.edu is a server for self-maintained
Web pages that are not part of the official Wells College web site. It
is essential that the distinction between official and unofficial be clear.
All pages on Aurora.wells.edu should have a statement of responsibility
at the bottom stating who is responsible for the page and noting that the
page does not implicitly
or explicitly represent official positions and policies of Wells College.
The statement should give the name and email address of a person, not
just an organization or committee.
