For attention of all final year undergraduate students.
Library and Information Services would like to take this opportunity to inform final year undergraduates about the termination of their computing accounts.

Your computing accounts will be set to expire on the 1^st of September 2008 - you are advised to use the time before this date to backup any files stored on your P: drive that you wish to keep. Options for doing this include backing up your files to CD or USB Flash Drive; these can be purchased from the Issue Desk in the Library and Information Centre. You can also access your P: drive over the Internet at:
https://netstorage2.singleton.swan.ac.uk/NetStorage/

For further advice on doing this, please contact the Student IT Support Desk on Level 3 of the Library and Information Centre.

PLEASE NOTE: Your computing account expiring will also mean that your email account will expire. You are again advised to use the time before the expiry date to arrange a new email address (i.e. a Hotmail or similar type of address) and to advise your email contacts of your new address if appropriate.

If you wish your account to be available over a longer period and have a genuine reason for such a request, please ask your tutor/supervisor to email itsupport@swansea.ac.uk if you wish us to consider such a request.

Students intending to re-enrol at Swansea University for postgraduate courses or similar should note that your existing computing and email accounts will become available to you automatically again once you have re-enrolled – you do not need to request this.

If you have any queries about this, or would like further advice, please visit the Student IT Support Desk on Level 3 of the Library and Information Centre, or email itsupport@swansea.ac.uk

The details highlighted by the research will be used by higher education institutions to review and develop their individual plagiarism policies in the future.  Institutions are also encouraged to use the project’s results to examine their existing procedures and engender a  complete and transparent picture of activity within the sector.

The research, the first of its kind in the UK, was conducted by the Academy JISC Academic Integrity Service (AJAIS), and  aims to benchmark current policy and practice in UK higher education with regard to the methods used to manage student plagiarism.”
