Ning Rules

Remember two things about posting content to the Internet:
It's public, and it's permanent.

Follow these rules on this site:
1. This is a class project, so you must behave (post) as if you are in class when using the Ning.

2. This is a public space, so present yourself with dignity and communicate with civility. Limit personal information. Use only your first name and last initial.

3. You may not link to private blogs, MySpace or Facebook accounts.

4. This is an 11th grade project. You may not invite anyone else to join. Only Mrs. C can make invitations.

5. Failure to follow these rules will lead to you being suspended or banned from this site.

I hope you enjoy this project. Now, go create, debate, participate and have fun!
