The Subscriber may use isiNET to host online discussion forums or send messages on topics of importance to their community or institution. The Subscriber will decide how these online forums and chat rooms are used, including whether they are available to students. These are public forums, and the information that users post may be available to other members of the Institution's community, and in some cases even to other institutions or the public Internet. The Subscriber will decide how they want to use the online forums, chats and bulletin boards.
