Data Storage and backup
We recommend that all students backup their critical files on a regular basis to either an external drive or a clouds storage solution. The rule of thumb is to backup anything that can’t be replaced. Marquette University students may use Microsoft OneDrive for Business with 1TB storage while enrolled as students. Other storage options include Google Drive (15GB free) and iCloud (5GB free).
Lecture/Event Capture
Lecture capture is available for students with the permission of their professor. Faculty are responsible for scheduling and recording classes. The student(s) requesting the recording will be emailed a secure link requiring their Marquette login to view or listen to the recording. There is no guarantee of a successful recording. The recording is dependent on timely requests, scheduling, and proper functioning and use of hardware. Contact your professor to request a recording.
Software
