Written by students, for students, our goal is to help spread awareness of the different types of online harassment and bullying and its effects. we explore the different types of abusive online behaviours and the grey areas included in these issues, as well as the consequences of engaging in abusive online behaviours.
When you arrive at university, it’s likely that your initial priority is to meet other students. However it can also be a little daunting– there can be thousands of students on one campus. Of course, social media can help, which makes the whole get-to-know-people side of uni a lot easier.
You’ll meet lots of different people and be introduced to their lives. But it’s important to understand that with different people come different beliefs, interests and opinions. It’s important to be mindful of this when communicating with them online.
These pages clarify the potential consequences personally, through the University disciplinary process, and legally if you are found to have breached our policies or the law.
