Meet ufiles.case.edu

In order to ensure the safety and security of important university data, we always encourage you to store all data on the U or P drives, as appropriate. We also discourage the use of thumb drives to transport data. Have you travelled to a conferece, but forgot that one important file? What if you need to get at those documents when you aren't at your computer?

We've got you covered with ufiles.case.edu! This site allows you access your U and P drives from anywhere you have acess to a web browser. Simply visit the site and log in with your CWRU username and password. Like other remote access solutions, enrollment in the Duo two-factor authentication application is required.

Once you've authenticated, you'll see the same drives, folders and files that are available to you from your computer. You can download that needed file, modify it and upload the changes back to the server, add new files, or a variety of standard file management options.

Google Calendar Out-of-Office

Google Calendar has recently released a new type of calendar entry for times when you will be out of the office. This event has a different appearance on your calendar so colleagues can more easily see when you'll be unavailable.

The most obvious application for this new feature is marking vacation days. Once placed on your calendar, all appointment invitations for that time will be automatically declined with a message you specify!

To create an Out of Office event in webmail, click on the appropriate day or time, and choose "Out of Office" from the popup box. In the Google Calendar app, tap the add event button in the lower right corner and then choose "Out of Office" from the options.

If you are going to be out for an extended period of time, we also recommend that you set an out of office reply for your email, as well.
