Updated Policy on Social Media Use Available on the Intranet
February 27, 2019An updated UMSON Policy on Social Media Use is available on the intranet under the Information Technology heading.
Please note this important update to the policy statement:
Employees and students are encouraged to be mindful that personal social media accounts (e.g., Facebook, Twitter) should not be branded in a way that implies or makes a reader potentially believe that the owner or administrator of the account is speaking on behalf of UMSON or the University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB).
Remember that UMSON has a dedicated team tasked with responding to comments and inquiries on social media. If you would like to bring a particular topic or discussion to the attention of UMSON for review and potential response, please contact the Office of Communications at nrscommunications@umaryland.edu. You are always permitted to refer individuals on social media to official content generated by UMSON by providing a link to that content.
