<br>We are currently revising our strategy for dealing with RIAA notificati=
ons. We are considering constructing a Desire to Learn course which offende=
rs would be required to "pass."<br><br>Right now we aren't pr=
oviding enough initial education as new students arrive on campus, we also =
are not utilizing any shaping technology to curb illegal activity. So as yo=
u can imagine we receive lots of these letters. We are working on the shapi=
ng and education parts, but right now we have a significant number of lette=
rs to deal with.<br>
<br>The following is a draft of our proposed sanction process:<br><br>First=
Offense: you will receive a letter and you will be required to complete D2=
L course in X<br>amount of time. Future DMCA violations until X date passes=
are considered offense #1.<br>
<br>Second Offense: you will receive a letter and be required to submit to =
an office visit with the<br>Student Rights and Responsibilities staff, with=
a Technology Services staff member present.<br>Your network resources will=
be revoked in your room and on wireless. Future DMCA violations<br>
until this meeting has been completed are considered offense #2.<br><br>Thi=
rd Offense: you will receive a letter and be required to submit to a second=
office visit with<br>the Student Rights and Responsibilities staff, with a=
Technology Services staff member present.<br>
In addition to the network resources being revoked, your W<span style=3D"fo=
nt-family:"Cambria Math","serif"">=E2=80=90</span>numbe=
r (access to network resources) will be turned off for the<br>course of Y m=
onths. Future DMCA violations until this meeting has been completed are<br>
considered offense #3. Months will be calculated in academic year months, i=
ncluding only the<br>traditional 9 months of fall and spring semesters.<br>=
<br><b>I'm wondering what other schools are doing to enforce policy onc=
e someone receives a letter, or if anyone is using D2L or Blackboard to cre=
ate an educational courses?</b></p>
