WWW Disclaimer

Recognizing the value of diversity and free speech, Northwestern makes WWW resources available to all segments of the Northwestern community but does not review, edit, or endorse all items accessible from these pages. Indeed, browsing our Web and the links from it is a little like wandering the campus - at one point you may be in the administration building; at another, in a dorm room or campus hangout, at yet another, in a classroom or the University Library. No single location is representative of the entire University.

Given the above, WWW home pages are not official statements of the University, and Northwestern University is not responsible for the content of every page that you can reach from here. While University departments will make every effort to ensure the accuracy of material they publish on the Web, discrepancies may sometimes exist between printed and electronic information. In any such case, the printed version of the material should be considered the official version. If you have questions about any Northwestern information that appears on the Web, please contact the originating department directly.

Similarly, opinions expressed in personal or nondepartmental home pages should be construed as those of its author, who is responsible for the information contained therein. If you have questions or comments about a particular page or document, please contact its author directly.

University Relations (UR) is responsible for the design and maintenance of the Northwestern home page. UR is not responsible for the completeness, accuracy, or timeliness of information provided by other departments or individuals. However, if you have any general comments, suggestions, or concerns about Northwestern's pages, please do not hesitate to direct them to University Relations (webmaster@northwestern.edu).
