***************************************************************** Information - College Activism List <actnow-l> ***************************************************************** Objectives 1. To exist as an information repository for data on college activism, events, and other items of interest. 2. To exist as an electronic medium for college students to distribute information on their own and other campuses. 3. To exist as a forum for college students, faculty members, and administrators to discuss academic and associated issues. ***************************************************************** Access Subscribers should understand that they can access the listserv using two addresses: the "listserv address" <listserv@brownvm.brown.edu> or, the "list address" <actnow-l@brownvm.brown.edu> However, they need to take great care to use the correct address for each specific purpose. The "listserv address" applies only to administrative requests (eg. subscribe/signoff) and the "list address" applies only to messages for distribution to other subscribers. Subscribers should use the list address only when they wish everyone on the list to receive a copy of the message. Also, they should use individual email addresses for private messages to other subscribers. Consequently, they need to check the header very carefully when replying to messages to ensure that they have inserted the correct addresses. This avoids personal embarrassment and subscriber annoyance.
