WesFiles is a centralized, web-based, document storage system that enables users to have easy network access to all ![wesfiles[1]](https://classof2013.blogs.wesleyan.edu/files/2009/10/wesfiles11.gif "wesfiles[1]")
their documents from anywhere. WesFiles replaces the old system of different storage locations for different types of documents, often requiring different front end programs and different usernames and passwords to gain access to files stored on different systems. There are many advantages to storing your documents in WesFiles
- Easy network access to all your documents from anywhere.
- Easy web access. You simply have to connect to https://wesfiles.wesleyan.edu and provide your credentials to access all your documents.
- WesFiles system can also be mounted on your desktop so it appears as though it is another disk on your computer.
- Ease of collaboration – you can set the access control for any document yourself; you can also share documents with anyone who doesn’t even have a Wesleyan email account.
- You don’t have to worry about backing up your files because WesFiles is backed up for you on a regular basis.
- WesFiles lends itself to extensions easily. For example, ITS has written a dropbox function that the faculty can set up in WesFiles.
- WesFiles provides a document workflow engine that is very powerful.

One of the most enduring and celebrated sagas in Wesleyan’s history is the Douglas Cannon. In the late 1860s, a yearly contest, the “Cannon Scrap,” began between the freshmen, whose mission it was to fire the cannon on February 22, and the sophomores, who were charged with foiling the effort.
A campus-wide field day based on the “Cannon Scrap” and other inter-class competitions that used to take place back in the day. Come and let your inner-child have a day of FUN!

As you prepare to travel home for Fall Break, I hope that you’ll consider taking information about Wesleyan back to the college advisor or guidance counselor at your alma mater. As an office, we encourage students to participate in this fall break activity to increase awareness about Wesleyan at high schools and to keep counselors updated on Wesleyan news.
