IncludeSponsorsDataDirectoryTableStart |
Directory/File Name | Purpose | ||
---|---|---|---|
| |||
<top> | There are no files to edit at the top-level.

| ||
REGISTRAR/
| |||
REGISTRAR/ | files under REGISTRAR "automatically" sponsor resources, based on data received from the registrar's office | ||
REGISTRAR/.DATA/ | Don't touch! The accounts-master computer program uses information from the Registrar to put, beneath this directory, lists of students in different classes | ||
REGISTRAR/Grads | base resources for Masters and PhD students | ||
REGISTRAR/Undergrads | base resources for undergraduate students | ||
REGISTRAR/cs | resources linked to enrolment in CS courses | ||
REGISTRAR/se | resources linked to enrolment in SE courses | ||
REGISTRAR-YYYYMM/
| |||
REGISTRAR-YYYYMM/ | Files under REGISTRAR-YYYYMM , e.g. REGISTRAR-201001 implement the predictable long-term expiry of sponsored resources by freezing the indicated previous terms class (program/year) memberships.
Another file there ensures any account created stays until after the drop-add deadline.
Occasionally (usually only in fall terms) you will see REGISTRAR-YYYYMMext directories. Read the file .README in such a directory for an explanation of its purpose and how it was created. | ||
CSCF/
| |||
CSCF/ | files under CSCF facilitate the computing facility | ||

CLASSES/TA-se | SE TAs | ||
CLASSES/Tutors | CS Tutors - usually co-op students | ||
CLASSES/automatic/ | directory for some conceptually automatically generated files; currently the result of processing Grad Office TA database to produce sponsorship info for TAs | ||
CLASSES/course.work | logical supplement to REGISTRAR/cs | ||

School/Away-Personnel | sponsors expiry period for personnel, to keep their account when they leave | ||
School/CS.MathClubs | Courtesy email aliases for Math Clubs, etc. | ||
