Do you know what the U: Drive can do?
Your U: drive (powered by Xythos) is a centralized file storage available for current students. You can save files to the drive and they will be available to you from anywhere you have an internet connection. It is also backed up regularly so if you are working on that important assignment or paper, this is a great place to save it.
You can connect to it by using the web interface or by mapping a drive and logging in using your PC Lab account (same username and password as your email). If you are working on a group project, you can post a file and set permissions to allow others to edit a document and also turn on versioning to save the changes made throughout the history of the document. With sharing is enabled you can setup the file checkout option to avoid anyone being able to edit the document at the same time.

Information Technology Services is pleased to announce that our Wide Area Network speeds have increased from 45Mbps to 200 Mbps for our academic and administrative circuit. In addition, the Resnet circuit has increased from 34 Mbps to 100 Mbps. Both of these upgrades were obtained through a bid process that resulted in a substantial decrease in our internet connectivity costs while providing increased connection speeds.

Phishing Scams and How to Protect Yourself
Phishing is an attempt to get personal and sensitive information from you via emails. These attempts may originate anywhere in the world (for example, Russia, China, Nigeria, etc). Often these emails may appear to be legitimate at first glance, so NEVER give out any sensitive information such as passwords, or bank account information via any email you receive. Please see some examples below, in order to help you recognize these kinds of bogus emails.
Do NOT open any link to a banking institution, IRS, etc from within an email. Never enter credit card information, passwords, or other personal information via an email link within a message. The IRS does NOT contact you via email concerning refunds and they already have your social security number, so any request for that are bogus.
