I'm looking into putting up a Facebook page for our Center. In
reviewing the Facebook terms and agreements, I was not sure about
some of the language. Does the wording (below*) simply mean we are
allowing whatever we post to go up on Facebook, or is there somerhing
else going on? There are so many MIT departments on Facebook, that
I'm thinking some of you have thought about this already. Or do I
need to seek out the Technology Licensing Office? Please advise.
