Official Web Pages The John Jay College of Criminal Justice web site policy governs the rights and obligations of the various entities that have access to, and are responsible for, the web pages that are placed on John Jay College publicly accessible web servers.

The official College web site consists of the web pages published by all academic and administrative departments, programs, college committees, centers, institutes, faculty senate, student government, student clubs and other units of John Jay College of Criminal Justice that are authorized to conduct official business on behalf of the College’s overall mission. Any questions concerning designation as an official body will be resolved by the president of the College subject to review by the College Council.

Designated representatives of the above-mentioned John Jay College units will be responsible for ensuring that the information on the official web pages is accurate, current, and does not violate the policy of the College and the City University of New York, and conforms with all state and federal laws.

The unauthorized use of copyrighted material and the inclusion of unauthorized advertising is prohibited. Official pages must include: 1) the logo and name of the College and CUNY; 2) links 
back to the College home page; 3) the name and e-mail of a contact; 4) accessibility to people who have physical disabilities. Procedures will be provided by the College to assist with implementation of these policies. The name of the content provider for the web page must be forwarded to the webmaster.
