Unless you specify otherwise, any and all works of authorship copyrightable by you and posted by you to any Service ("Content") are submitted under the terms of an Attribution-Share Alike Creative Commons Public License.

When publicly displaying, reproducing or distributing copies of your Content, or Content as incorporated into a collective work, EDUCAUSE will make best efforts to credit your authorship. You grant EDUCAUSE permission to use your name for such attribution purposes. You, likewise, agree to represent yourself accurately. You acknowledge that misrepresentation may lead us, in our sole discretion, to cancel your use of the Services and delete any of your Content.
You may post Content freely, so long as the Content is not illegal, obscene, defamatory, threatening, infringing of intellectual property rights, invasive of privacy or otherwise injurious or objectionable.
You may not use the EDUCAUSE name to endorse or promote any product, opinion, cause or political candidate. Representation of your personal opinions as institutionally endorsed by EDUCAUSE is strictly prohibited.
By posting Content to any Service, you warrant and represent that you either own or otherwise control all of the rights to that Content, including, without limitation, all the rights necessary for you to provide, post, upload, input or submit the Content, or that your use of the Content is a protected fair use. You agree that you will not knowingly and with intent to defraud provide material and misleading false information. You represent and warrant also that the Content you supply does not violate these Terms, and that you will indemnify and hold EDUCAUSE harmless for any and all claims resulting from Content you supply.
You acknowledge that EDUCAUSE does not pre-screen or regularly review posted Content, but that it shall have the right to remove in its sole discretion any Content that it considers to violate these Terms.
You understand that all Content posted to a Service is the sole responsibility of the individual who originally posted the Content. You understand, also, that all opinions expressed by users of this site are expressed strictly in their individual capacities, and not as representatives of EDUCAUSE.
