Overview of Graduate Student Websites and Templates

Physics Department Template Usage

Templates are common across university, business, and well-coordinated websites in general. The physics department has decided to use them to help the user focus on the information contained in the grad student websites rather than on the websites themselves. The uniformity of appearance also helps visually link the graduate student websites to the Physics department.

Templates give students a starting place for developing their website and have useful information constructs already laid out. Sections for a personal picture, contact information and general physics-related information are already in place.

Appropriate Website Content

Appropriate physics department website information includes credentials, class information, and physics related material. Your website must not contain content which is defamatory, libelous, obscene, pornographic, threatening, abusive, illegal, or otherwise objectionable that would constitute or encourage a criminal offense, violate the rights of any party, or that would otherwise give rise to liability, or violate any law.

In addition, UNR Physics Department web sites may not be used for providing material that is grossly offensive to the general web community including blatant expressions of racism, bigotry, hatred, or profanity.

Pages must not contain, or contain links to, any of the following: nudity (nudity in art, sculptures are acceptable as long as they are not explicit), sex, pornography, tasteless images, foul language, hate propaganda, MP3 files, anything illegal, illegal software, serial numbers for unlocking software, mail fraud, pyramid schemes or be insulting to another person(s), the UNR Department of Physics, or UNR itself. This prohibition includes anything that may be considered Adult material.

Please note all webpages are reviewed by the Physics Department and are subject to removal without recourse. If you have a question about what constitutes proper content please address your concerns to the physics webmaster
