Class groups are created as announcement-only mailing lists which means only the instructor can send email to the group. If you wish to allow open discussion among students, here's how.
Browse to Google Groups for uni.edu to see a list of the groups you a member of. If you are logged into your UNI Gmail account, you can click on the "Groups" link at the top.

The UNI Physical Plant owns mailing lists that are organized by office building. They were created to aid that office in notifying building occupants when planned service outages (heat, water, power, etc.) were scheduled. These lists are not restricted to use by only the Physical Plant, but that office should be consulted first by others wishing to use them.
These lists include faculty, staff and externals with offices in the specified building. Email holds are not recognized for faculty and staff. Externals will not receive the email if they have an email hold on their record.

Text Fields
Text fields (single row, not the multi-row Text Areas) should generally always be set to be inline, so the label is next to the Text Box, not above it. It shortens the length of the form and in most cases improves the layout.
Using Proper Fields
When creating fields in a form, be sure you're using the proper Field Type for each one.
In the case below, a Text Field type was used for an email field. Email fields should always use the Email Type. That allows the developer to also set a reply email field to the person submitting the form.

Don't use tables for layout, tables should only be used for presenting data that needs to be in a table...

Before selling or discarding an old computer, or throwing away a disk or CD, you naturally make sure that you've copied all of the files you need. You've probably also attempted to delete your personal files so that other people aren't able to access them. However, unless you have taken the proper steps to make sure the hard drive, disk, or CD is erased, people may still be able to resurrect those files.
Where do deleted files go?
When you delete a file, depending on your operating system and your settings, it may be transferred to your trash or recycle bin. This "holding area" essentially...
