PolicyITSA Policy and UF IT Policy I've found it difficult to find the ITSA Computing Policy and the UF IT Policies, so I will provide the links here and keep them here. IMM - http://imm.ifas.ufl.edu UF IT - http://www.it.ufl.edu/policies/ There will now be an ICC Policy Page that will keep track of policy and guidelines. These are not strict rules meant to dictate what must be done, but instead, a page of policies that are meant to help keep things running smoothly for each department and ITSA. You can find it here.
