Recreational Computing policies, guidelines, etc.

[Vaughan Turner]

We are attempting to set up a campus-wide computing policy here at
NMSU.

I'm interested in what policies other universities (businesses, etc)
are using, and how effective they are.

I'd really like to know about *in place* policies (including "we don't
have a policy") and problems resulting/alleviated by these policies.

For the time being, I am *NOT* asking for a "Well, I think..." series
of responses.

Some people may relate the term "recreational computing" to game
playing, but I would like it to be broader than that.  It should also
include programming for fun, etc.

I am looking for policy on any type of recreational computing, be it
on multi-user systems (Unix boxes) as well as standalone machines
(IBMs, Macs, etc).

Thanks for your attention,

Vaughan
