Getting Started

[WASC Senior]

The WASC listservs have been created to encourage communication and
networking among WASC-accredited institutions. Communications through
the listservs are intended to be supportive, and to serve as an
information source. Entry-level questions are considered quite
acceptable and encouraged, as are more complex and challenging areas
of inquiry. We are seeking to create a "learning community."

Here are some helpful tips to help you get started:

Introduce yourself. If you are new to the listserv, please tell us
who you are in your first post (name, title, organization, URL), so we
have a sense of the person behind the content.

Everyone's opinions are welcome, and every question deserves an
answer.

Feel free to engage in a spirited discussion or disagree; however,
avoid "flaming" or attacking individuals (members and non-members) and
organizations. We ask that you refrain from using profane, obscene,
intolerant, or abusive language, or from being rude or abusive towards
other people. Everyone who posts is a person, not just a username.

Get permission before you forward. In the interests of maintaining a
positive focus where people feel free to air issues they are worried
about without fear of oversight by third parties, we want to remind
you that postings to the list are for listserv members only. Messages
on this listserv are confidential. They are not to be forwarded to
people who are not members of the listserv without the permission of
all contributors to the content of the message. If you know other
people who may be interested in their content, encourage them to join
the WASC listservs through our website at http://www.wascsenior.org/groupsignup
