Turning in Assignments on Disk

Each disk you turn in should be labelled with the following information:

Your memo should include the names of all files included on the disk. Those files named should be the ONLY files on the disk.

Disks that haven't been virus scanned will not be accepted!

If you don't know how to scan a disk for viruses ask one of the lab assistants. If a COMP 14 LA is not available, one of the regular LA's staffed by ATN should be able to help you.

You can use one disk for several assignments without multiple labels by writing in the new information. For example, if you use one disk for assignments 3, 5, and 7 that were due on 5/26, 5/31, and 6/5, then your assigment and virus scanned info could look like:
