Freedom of expression and an open environment to pursue scholarly inquiry and to share information are encouraged, supported and protected at Texas A&M University. The University's stance on communications on the Internet is detailed in the Electronic Information Study Group Final Report.
Listed below are policies, regulations and laws that cover the appropriate use of the Texas A&M University campus network. It is important that you read and understand them, as violations of them can have serious ramifications.
