Important IT Information for New & Current Students

College Network Information

Each member of the College has storage space available on the network. When logging on to CVM computers, this space should automatically be connected. The IT office can assist in configuring other methods of access to this storage as well.

Personal Network Space: Located on W:\ **This is PRIVATE storage, accessible only by you.**

Drop boxes for everyone in the college to share files: S:\CVM\User-Dropboxes (listed lastname,firstname) **This is PUBLIC storage accessible by anyone in the College.**

Volatile Drive: V:\ This is unprotected space which is not backed up and which is made available as temporary storage that everyone in the College has access to. Good for large images and / or movies, etc. on a short-term basis. This space may be cleaned up without warning, so please make sure that this is not the only place you have copies of the files stored here.

Common Shared Space for Students: S:\CVM\Students

ID Card Access: Your CVM ID badge has been programmed to grant you building/room access to all allowed areas based on academic year designation; additional access will be granted with proper approval. For identification purposes, your badge should be worn at all times when on the CVM Campus. Broken and/or damaged badges (and clips) are replaced FREE of charge--please note: the old badge must be exchanged for the new one. Also, ONE lost badge will be replaced FREE of charge during your educational career. You will be charged $10.00/per badge for any additional lost badge replacements. In either case a temporary badge will be issued for up to a week before a new badge will be ordered. Contact Stephanie Bossaller for all ID needs in W-234 Vet. Med. Bldg., via e-mail at stephanie@missouri.edu or call (573) 884-4367.
