Position Statement

We aim at being the leading resource for all things relating to Schenectady,New York. Our users are a big part of our information. Chronicles of the What Nots (COTWN) is a user friendly website which users can add their stories and observations.

Our position is centered on the informed pet owner, or temporary foster parent, being the animal’s best advocate for their well-being. Being an animal’s advocate requires making decisions based on Schenectady News. The preference is on humanistic philosophy, animal welfare, education, environment, healthcare, etc.

COTWN’s users, submitter’s and business partners are required to comment, add content, advertising and otherwise conduct business consistent with COTWN’s position on 1) animal and environmental rights, 2) social responsibility toward animal and environmental issues and 3) creating community engagement standards as communicated through the this statement.

All are encouraged to comment, add content, advertising and otherwise follow and work toward COTWN’s practices and procedures for humane practices.
