At Clarkson, we strive to create a community where all students, faculty and staff feel welcome and CLARKSON ATHLETICS respected. That community extends to social media, Twitter: @ClarksonUSports so we expect you to not post anything that could potentially hurt, insult or harass others at Clarkson. Opportunities to remain anonymous online lead some CLARKSON CAREER CENTER Facebook: Clarkson University Career Center to believe they can post anything without consequence, but all social media activity can leave Twitter: @cucareer trails that trace back to the author of the post. If you see something, say something: contact your resident CLARKSON DINING advisor or the Dean of Students if you notice Facebook: Clarkson University Dining social media activity that harasses or insults members of the Clarkson community.
