4. Student Organization web page account
To create and maintain a student organization's web page a web editor will need to apply for an SFTP account. An SFTP account allows each student organization the ability to create a web page, housed on Harvard Law School servers. With this account the student organization will be able to use any SSH software to connect to the student organization's web page files.
