Joke Website: WebGMUC

Posted March 10, 2004, 4:02 p.m.

Spun off from the George Mason University, Corp. parody, this is a parody of the GMU student information system called WebGMU. You’re more likely to get useful information out of mine than you are during the real one during class-selection time, final-exam time, or when tuition is due. Made in 2004.

WebGMUC.

‘Joke Website: WebGMUC’ is a parody of the George Mason University WebGMU web site as it appeared in 2004, and is thus protected under the fair-use provisions of copyright law. GMU claims a copyright on the original work, however as a state institution its copyright is unenforceable (if even legal in the first place).
