The University of Southern Mississippi has more than 12,000 e-mails per day pass through our technology system.  iTech, the university's technology support division, does not monitor e-mails.  The e-mails monitored for the hearing were done so in accordance with university policy and state law.  The monitoring was limited in its scope and time.  No monitoring is occurring at this time.  We encourage faculty, staff and students to review the university's information technology use and security policy, which can be accessed at http://www.usm.edu/infosec/policy.
