This did jog my memory, and I was able to find the words of a GC that 
were posted to a public (and googlable) forum:

http://listserv.educause.edu/cgi-bin/wa.exe?A2=ind0804&L=security&P=5103

Keep in mind that The Citadel is a state-supported college and that 
these words are not mine and they are not the words of the poster--they 
do appear to be direct from the GC.

I hope this adds to the discussion.  I am sure that I share a 
commonality with many on this list in saying IANAL.
