To encourage discussion and foster community, please follow these guidelines, adapted from Senate Listserv Guidelines:

  3. Do not transmit proprietary, or unauthorized copyright-protected material.
  4. Be polite. Without the visual and audio clues of speech, if your words could be taken the wrong way, they will be. Be clear and civil, and remember that irony and sarcasm really don’t carry over well with plain text.
