2 WELCOME TO NC STATE! Don t let technology difficulties impact your success! NC State s Office of Information Technology (OIT) is here to help ensure a smooth technology transition. The mission of OIT is to support students, faculty and staff in achieving their goals. While here at NC State, you will come into contact with new, innovative and exciting uses of technology in learning and social situations, some of which may be stressful. I want you to know that the university IT team is here to provide you with a variety of resources - the Help Desk, wireless networking, computer labs, Google Apps, mobile and more. Our Help Desk is as close as your mobile when you dial (919) 515 HELP (5-4357) or help@ncsu.edu. The Walk-in Center, centrally located in the West Dunn Building, provides support for computers and technology needs. I expect your Google calendar will be full in no time (with hints from this version) with interesting events, club meetings, sports and even a few parties. This paper calendar is a symbol of the efforts and time management skills that you will need for success. Jump in and get involved. As NC State s CIO, I want to share some critical rules to protect your IT security and privacy! Here are my four golden rules for protecting yourself: 1. Never give your password to ANYONE! Not help desk staff, not friends, not parents, not anyone! 2. Use Google 2-Step Verification for your account and Duo for MyPack Portal and Wolfware. Both are added layers of security that deter hackers from gaining access to your accounts. More information is available at go.ncsu.edu/2fa. 3. Never put in an or text message or on Facebook, Instagram, Snap or Twitter something that you would not want to go viral. 4. NEVER share or download copyrighted material that you did not pay for or have permission from the copyright holder to use. Remember that IT security and IT privacy are under your control, so don t be a victim. Let OIT help you be successful at NC State. Throughout this calendar, you ll find hints, information and important IT topics that will help you be successful in your University career. Be sure to take advantage of the many support services on campus. Have a great and successful experience and Go Wolfpack!
