Some people think of chain letters as a harmless diversion.
However, the CAC views the distribution of chain letters as a serious misuse of university resources. Chain letters require the use of system or server space in order to be stored for the recipient. Space on university computer systems is reserved for university related work. Transmitting or making accessible offensive, obscene or harassing materials or messages are not University-related activities and are prohibited. Persons who are found to be sending chain letters may have their accounts locked until they contact either their instructor, the CAC Computer Accounts Office or, for those who are not at University Park, their campus representative.
