Information Technology Policies

Hobart and William Smith Colleges makes its technology and electronic resources available to best support the needs of the community. This requires that we develop and implement policies that protect the Colleges’ electronic resources from abuse or illegal activity. This site provides a compilation of policies currently in place. Please direct any questions about these policies to the Office of the Chief Information Officer.
