Web Content Filtering

Colleagues,
I'm the new CISO for the University of Michigan.  I look forward to meeting
you and working with you.  One of my first issues is web content filtering.

I've been asked whether any other higher education institutions implement
web content filtering and if so what groups to you filter for and what
kinds of content.  If you wish, I'd also welcome your opinion on how well
it works.

This has started with our health system and my guess is that would be our
focus if we went forward.  However, one of our Trustees has been
questioning why we don't filter across the University.  I have to go to an
initial meeting Friday afternoon, so any info you can give me before then
would be much appreciated.

Sincerely,
Don
