Blackboard:
Blackboard is a course management system. Here you may find a syllabus, homework assignments, tests, links to reference material and other information for the classes you are enrolled in. Not all classes will use Blackboard. It is up to the professor whether or not they use Blackboard and the type and amount of content they post for the student.

Online Password Management:
The Password Management website allows you to manage your password from anywhere in the world with an Internet connection and a web browser. Passwords expire 180 days after being set. You will receive an email warning that your password is about to expire. At this point you should go to the Password Management website and change your password.

H: Drive:
Each student is given personal space on our file servers to store files related to their class work. The H: Drive is automatically connected when you log on to any computer in a classroom, Library Computer Lab and Cybercafe. Your H: Drive is also available via the web at myfiles.ju.edu. The logon for My Files is a bit different than normal. In the Username box, you will have to type the domain and your username in the following format, ocean\username. (Make sure you use the correct slash)

Keeping your class work files on the H: Drive is safer than carrying them around on a floppy or flash drive. The H: Drives are backed up each weeknight, so if you accidently delete a file, it can be restored from the backup. Contact the Helpdesk x7200 if you need a file restored.

Personal Websites:
Every student at Jacksonville University has the opportunity to host a personal or organization Web site on a JU server. We support static and dynamic content of various types. Every Web site starts out with 50 megabytes of storage. If 50 megabytes isn't going to hack it for you, call the Helpdesk and request an increase. You can view policies and guidelines here. If you have any other questions about getting set up or using your Web space, call Ryan at 7514.
