Student Organizations
Sharing and Permissions

Personal and Class Sites
Do we want to suggest defaults, or build these on a case by case basis?
Questions with Answers
- Editors can change a site name but not the URL (https://support.google.com/sites/answer/99451?hl=en)
- Site creation requests and training requests will be submitted via Help/JIRA (GNRL, assigned to FacLab or STEL as appropriate)
- Policy suggestion: We will create sites for Student groups, Classes, Personal Sites for Faculty and Staff. Students can request a site if it has a direct academic purpose. Other requests will be reviewed by University Technology staff, who will determine if a page at sites.drew.edu is appropriate to meet the needs of the customer making the request.
- Student Activities will determine the name and URL of student organization sites.
Questions to be answered
- Will ETC redirect existing groups.drew.edu pages to the new Google Sites URLs?
