Important Student Notice Regarding Disks

During the semester, many students have experienced problems with diskettes and have ultimately lost their work. Any coursework stored on diskette should be backed up to at least one other diskette to protect against last-minute disasters. Floppy diskettes are often unreliable.

Don't find yourself holding a disk with a corrupted file 10 minutes before a term paper is due.

Protect yourself:

1. Backup your files on another diskette. To learn how to backup files, use the backup file instructions PDF. Please note: You must have Adobe® Acrobat® Reader™ in order to view and print the backup file instructions PDF. To download a free copy of Acrobat® Reader™ from Adobe®, click here.
2. Always save your latest printout.
