Users are encouraged to make use of the University’s computing and communication resources in pursuit of legitimate activities that further the educational, research, administrative, and service mission of the institution.
However, users must also be aware of the finite capacity of computers or network systems, and of the resources required to obtain and support those resources.
Such resources are shared among all members of the campus community, and it is in the interest of all users to ensure the proper functioning, availability, and performance of computing and communication systems and networks.
Ensure data stored on the Servers is current and being used to fulfill your mission.
Remove data from Servers that is no longer being used - either delete or archive to CDROM.
