I came across a BBC news story that might be of interest to some of you. The story reports that Keele University is threatening students for making negative comments about staff members on MySpace and Facebook. The news story "Students critise staff on net" can be accessed at: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/staffordshire/6686619.stm I'm not familiar with Keele University and not certain what cultural practices are guiding the decision-making processes of the administrators who are choosing this course of action. Can anyone share information about this University that might shed light on the administrative culture? /Gail --------------------------------------- Gail D. Taylor, M.Ed.
