 Dear Dr. Cramer,

 

It has been a month since we’ve been in touch with one another.  Thank you for following through on your commitment to use private resources and accounts, instead of your University account, to continue your dispute with Joseph Villarosa

As you know, Mr. Villarosa raised concerns about a number of things, including your alleged violation of the University’s Personal Use Policy http://www.unc.edu/finance/busman/act/actpol26.html and UNC Chapel Hill Network Acceptable Use Policy http://help.unc.edu/1672.

When the University receives a receive a complaint about a possible violation of these policies, we do an investigation.  Pursuant to the University Policy on the Privacy of Electronic Information (http://www.unc.edu/campus/policies/elec_info.html), your email files were reviewed.  What we found is that, since 2004, you have regularly used your “unc” account to set up and manage a PayPal account on behalf of FOCAS and to solicit monetary gifts from donors and potential donors to FOCAS.

This is a violation of University policy.  The penalties for violation of the policy include restricted access or loss of access to the University computer network. 

If my understanding of the facts is incorrect, please let me know right away.   If my understanding is correct, then you may either relinquish your “unc” account, effective immediately, or I will work with the University’s Information Security Office to disable your account.  Please let me know how you would like to proceed.  

Thanks,

Leslie Strohm
