COUNCIL Open Forum

Proposed Policy on Privacy in the Electronic Environment

TO:	University Community
FROM:	Larry Gross, Chair, University Council Steering Committee
DATE:	January 28, 2000
SUBJECT:	University Council February 9, 2000 Meeting

At the last University Council meeting held on Wednesday, January 19, 2000, the Committee on Communications proposed a policy on privacy in the electronic environment. Given the level of interest in this policy, University Council will sponsor a forum for all members of the University community to participate in discussion of the proposed policy. In preparing the agenda for the Wednesday, February 9, 2000, University Council meeting, the Steering Committee set this as the major agenda item of the regularly scheduled meeting. The meeting will be held in McClelland Hall, the Quadrangle from 4 p.m. until 6 p.m. and is open to any member of the University Community who wishes to attend, subject to space limitations. Penn ID is required for entrance to the Quadrangle.

To fully participate in discussion, we recommend review of the proposed policy published in the January 11, 2000 issue of Almanac, which can also be found at www.upenn.edu/almanac/v46/n16/e-privacy.html.
