Share Information
Every individual (faculty, staff and students)
is automatically granted an EdShare account for their personal
use. Each department of the university also has a shared space
for that department. Cost Center Managers and Deans are responsible
for maintaining the department shares. If you wish to setup a special
directory or "share" for
a class or for a cross departmental committee you may do so. These
shares may only be created by faculty or staff, but students may
be added to the shares.
Special shares have the following characteristics:
- The share name is proceeded by s_
- Any currently enrolled student or employed faculty or staff
may be added to a share
- Shares may only be added or maintained by faculty or staff
