[Air-l] Universities policies on blogging

[S.S.Orgad at lse.ac.uk]

Hello all,

A colleague of mine has been given a hard time following some stuff he's posted on his personal blog (http://ringmar.net/forgethefootnotes/). He's interested to learn about universities' policies regarding personal blogging by academics. What can and cannot be said in a personal blog maintained by an academic?  

I'd appreciate any references you might suggest or if you know of any related cases. 

Thanks!

Shani
