1. Do not post the same message more than once.
2. Check and recheck the message before sending, making sure it's complete and accurate!
3. Do not post personal messages or questions to the list.
4. Put your message in a readable format and use Spell Check.

Solicitation Policy

If ECU has no official ties to the request, don't send it through Announce! This rule applies to faculty, staff, ECU clubs and ECU organizations. ECU policy strictly prohibits "door-to-door" solicitation, including electronic mailboxes. This prohibition includes, but is not limited to, the following:
          

• Canvassing - to solicit orders, political support or to determine opinions or sentiments
• Peddling   - to sell or offer for sale
• Soliciting - to approach with a request or plea

Questions or concerns regarding this policy should be directed to the University Attorney's office.
