A word about security ...

At the present time, everyone has TOTAL access to all files and folders located at http://cte.jhu.edu/techacademy/fellows/, so please be careful when moving files. You could easily erase other accounts or files if you are not paying attention. If it's deemed necessary, we can create password protected NT accounts for everyone at a later time.
