Sanctions/Suspension of Privileges

Violations of this policy constitute unacceptable use of Computing Resources.  Violations may result in a loss of computing privileges and may subject users to the University's regular disciplinary processes, including suspension or dismissal from the University.

Whether or not a violation of this policy has occurred, the University reserves the right to immediately suspend computing privileges when continued use of any Computing Resources may result in harm to or otherwise compromise that or any other Computing Resources.  Such privileges will be restored after the potential harm is eliminated (e.g., a virus on a personal computer is deleted), unless a material violation of this policy is alleged, in which case the matter will be referred to the regular disciplinary processes of he University.

In addition, illegal acts involving  University Computing Resources may also subject violators to prosecution by local, state and/or federal authorities. Suspected or known violations should be reported to the appropriate University authority, in accordance with current disciplinary procedures. Violations will be processed in accordance with these procedures and/or law enforcement agencies.
