It's your choice.  The permission bits are the same any way you say it, 
but it is best to use the way that you understand and do an 'ls -ld' on 
the directory after the chmod to be sure it is right.  Remember, the 
object of this is to set the directory owner/modes so that the user can 
still create/remove his own files but can't remove/replace certain files 
that you will chown to root.
