[comp.misc] Student Contracts, and legality rears its ugly head.

gaspar@inf.ethz.ch (Scott "gaspo" Gasparian) (03/04/91)

Greetings all!! I need a to get some copies of the little forms that
almost all univeristies have students sign before they are issued an
account.  The reason I'm looking for them is that a certain institution
that I am sorta affiliated (hint, hint, wink wink) with needs to
implement this setup and I am looking for examples.  The basic jist of
the form should be "I wont muck up the system, steal passwords, or cheat
on my homework, and since I signed this, you can take me to court on
it".  I remember signing these things every semester for temporary
accounts, and a general one for anything related to university (not just
the accounts).

If anybody has one, or knows what they look like, or can suggest what
kind of wording should be used, or know of a better newsgroup to ask in,
please E-Mail me.  If there is any "me-too's" I will summarize.  Any
lawyer types who would be willing to drop some "free" advice could
possibly be considered "favorably" for cases involving situations of
this nature.

TIA,
--gaspo.
