Helpful Tips
- Save often: Lab computers do not store information. If an outage or computer were to occur, any information not saved would be permanently lost.
- Save to the network home drive ("M" drive): Each declared business undergraduate and graduate student is supplied with space on the college's network "M" drive, accessible from on and off campus. Don't risk losing a project; store it here. Files saved on this drive are backed up regularly. See the front desk staff for more information or view the instructions online. Faculty and staff also have access to a network home directory is mapped to the "M" drive.
- Remember to log off your lab computer: When using the computer lab it is important to always log off when finished. If you remain logged on, someone else could have access to your network drives and printing account.
- Install the UO VPN client: Installing and using the UO VPN client will give you access to university resources such as your network home drive, library resources, and other internal university services that are only available when connected to the university network.
- Connect wirelessly: With your DuckID you have access to the university's wireless network. A wireless connection allows you to access university resources just about anywhere on campus.
