Just a reminder to all students that the iMacs in all three newsrooms will be wiped over the summer as usual. So if you have any files that are stored in the 'documents' directory or on the desktop of any of those computers, now is the time to back them up. Remember it is your responsibility to keep back up copies of all of your media files.
