 <P>1. Brief History of can.org.cusen
<P>-----------------------------------------

<P>CUSEN, which stands for Canadian unified student environmental network, was formed in 1990. It has been growing ever since. It was decided at the last meeting of  the atlantic section of CUSEN that a newsgroup would be the best idea for a means of communciaton. A proposal was put in and there was much positive response within can.config.


<P>-----------------------------------------------------
 <P>2. Relevance: Before Posting on can.org.cusen
<P>-----------------------------------------------------

<P> Conisider if your post is relevant.

<P>Question:

<P>a) Is this a newsgroup to post general questions on environmental concerns?

<P>This newsgroup is mainly for discussion of CUSEN ideas. Mainly what activities student environmental groups can carry out, the sharing of ideas of what groups can do and to hopefully inform more people. Environmental concerns can be brought up if it is felt that they pertain to the student sector of the population. Other groups where environmental discussions are carried out include talk.enviornmenl and sci.environment.


<P>-----------------------------------------
 <P>3. How do I access can.org.cusen?
<P>-----------------------------------------

<P> As one of over 10,000 Usenet newsgroups, can.org.cusen is accessible on almost all servers in Canada and on some (including, the three major commercial) servers outside of Canada.
 If you are new to the internet's Usenet and are unable to locate the can.org.cusen newsgroup. you are encouraged to email your server's Administrator (postmaster@[your server]) and request the newsgroup directly. Some servers carry only a limited number of Usenet's newsgroups, so be patient, persistent, or consider opening an account on another server that has can.org.cusen already.

<P>----------------------------------------
 <P>4. How Many Students involved with CUSEN are there in Canada?
<P>----------------------------------------

<P>I do not know this number. This is one reason which we need a medium for discussion. I am sure there are students around canada who are involed with CUSEN but never communciate with other members. We hope through this newsgroup to reach more of the members.


<P>---------------------------------------
<P> 5. What is a "Kill File"?
<P>---------------------------------------

<P> It's a way to automatically filter out articles you don't want to see.

 eg., if you are using your Tin editor to filter out all articles on the Usenet by annoying@name.com (annoyingman):

<P> Start reading the newsgroup.
 Press CTRL-K to edit your KILL file for the newsgroup.
 Add the following line to the file:

<P>	  /annoying@name/h:j

<P> The next time you start reading the newsgroup, rn will check each of the new articles in the group, and junk any of them containing the string "annoying@foo" in its _header_. So you'll never see any articles that "Annoying" posts.

<P> If you also want to filter out any followups that other people post to Annoying's _articles_, use the following line instead:

<P>	 /annoying@name/a:j

<P> This command will junk any articles containing the string "annoying@name" anywhere in the article. For more information about KILL files, please consult your local news guru / helpdesk.


<P>---------------------------------------------
 <P>6. What to do about threats/internet abuse?
<P>---------------------------------------------

<P>(Taken from the soc.culture.asian.american FAQs):

<P> If someone is harrassing you via e-mail (i.e., mail-bombs -- filling your mailbox with tons of garbage, death threats, etc.), let the Administrator (postmaster@[offender's server]) of the offender's server know, and if necessary, contact your own system administrator if the situation persists.

<P> Mail-bombing is frowned upon by system administrators and, like death threats, is an infraction of "nettiquite" rules. Likewise, do not mail-bomb others.


<P>----------------------------------------------
<P>7. Who do I contact about CUSEN?
<P>----------------------------------------------

<P>CUSEN National Secretary
<P>51 Queen's Cresent
<P>The Grey House
<P>Kingston, Ontario, CANADA
<P>K7L 3N6
 
<P>(613)548-3838           e-mail:  cusen@quedn.queensu.ca
