Named for Ohio's world-famous Wright brothers, Wright State University offers an exceptional, inclusive, and valuable education that puts pioneering students on the path to future success. Wright State, in its sole discretion, may use any of its official and affiliated social media platforms to promote and share information about university news, initiatives, events, media, and other announcements. It may also, in its sole discretion, permit discussion on limited public forums. It may further remove comments, messages, and other communications (hereafter "Comments,") and restrict access to users whose Comments violate Wright State’s policies or mission. Wright State may remove Comments that contain, constitute, or link to:
- Malicious or harmful software;
- Non-University advertisements, promotions, spam, off-topic content, or solicitations;
- Confidential, personally identifying, or private information (as defined by state law);
- Profanity, nudity, obscenity;
- Threats of violence or threats to public safety;
- Users who make threats of violence or threats to public safety may be reported to the Wright State University Police Department, Office of Student Conduct, Wright State Human Resources, and/or other local or state authorities for investigation.
- Copyrighted materials in violation of state or federal law;
- Disruptively repetitive content; or
- If the Comment materially interrupts University business or interferes with the opportunity of other students to obtain an education. Wright State may, in its sole discretion, activate platform-provided profanity filter tools which automatically hide Comments that use profanity. Removed Comments: Removed Comments cannot be restored, as they are no longer accessible to the University. An individual whose post has been removed may review Comment Guidelines and post a new Comment in a way that does not violate Guidelines. Any content removed pursuant to these Guidelines will be photographed via screen shot and retained for a minimum of 60 days. Hidden Comments: Hidden Comments are typically the product of one of three scenarios. The platform itself has an algorithm or other display methodology that the University cannot control. An individual has platform settings or privacy settings that affect Comment display and availability. The University shall have the right in its discretion to activate platform-provided profanity filter tools that automatically hide Comments that use profanity. The University cannot unhide or alter the display of Comments as arranged or determined by the platform itself or an individual's settings as outlined in the first two scenarios. Hidden Comments due to a profanity filter may be unhidden pending review by the University. Banned Accounts: An individual's user profile may be temporarily or permanently restricted from accessing the official and/or University-affiliated social-media profile if they repeatedly and consistently violate university policy or as a result of a single significant violation that is disruptive to the University's activities. Individuals may contact University Communications and Marketing at [email protected] at any time to identify Comments or other conduct in violation of this policy.
