The Rules
Etiquette
Before editing any page, you must do the following to keep the wiki running properly.
- Before you change the existing content, review the edit history to check if the change you are making has been made before. If you spot a dispute, click on the discussion page to put out your side of the story. Once a compromise has been met, the page can be edited.
- Absolutely no personal attacks
- Keep jokes to a minimum. We want to keep the wiki as professional as possible.
- Assume other editors are acting in good faith. If you find a mistake, it is likely unintentional.
Profiles of Faculty
Faculty profiles are generally the responsibility of students to fill out. These pages must be informational only and may not include any evaluations of the faculty. Examples: research focuses, research approach, current projects, and the types of students the he/she is looking for. Keep in mind this wiki is public and will be read by the faculty you are writing about. If you want a review on a faculty member's lab, please email
Profiles of Students
Students are solely responsible for their own profiles. Out of courtesy, others should refrain from editing these pages, even if they are out of date. Personal opinions, lab experiences, and class reviews should be kept here.
Coursework
The course list pages (Ithaca, NYC) must be informational only, including what is covered, the teaching approach, time commitment, expectations, and the general usefulness to CBM students. Reviews and opinions of the courses MUST be kept in each student's personal pages. Each course should also have links to all students who have taken that course so that viewers can easily get to their reviews of that class.
Style Guidelines
Student Pages
The content of student pages is left solely to the student to create, but below are some guidelines for the content we suggest. Description of the student's research focus area and goals, the institution they are affiliated with, and the lab they are currently rotating in. A list of courses the student has taken, along with optional review of their experience with the course. A list of labs the student has rotated in, with optional reviews of their experience.
