Working from Home
Staying well and effective, in addition to being safe.
Many staff have never worked from home, and even if they have, it has not been for as many hours or days, potentially combined with family duties. Most staff are likely not aware of the small changes you can make to your home work environment to create a more comfortable, safe, and productive work-at-home experience.
To access certain campus resources from off-site (such as the shared (M) drive, Jenzabar, Raiser’s Edge, etc.), you can connect to the college VPN. LITS Documentation for Connecting to the College VPN Use of the college VPN should be limited only to the situations in which it is required. While public VPN services exist to help address privacy concerns while browsing the web, the college VPN is not designed for this purpose and should be used exclusively for accessing campus resources that are not available from off-site. It’s important to remember to disconnect the VPN when not using the above resources from off-campus. While connected to the VPN, you may notice that network connectivity (including web browsing, file transfers, etc.) will be slower than normal, even while on a fast internet connection. The VPN client may also try to keep you connected to the VPN even after you have returned to campus or after you have restarted your computer or disconnected from the internet. To prevent connection speed issues or other problems, be sure to disconnect from the VPN after using it. When to use the VPN
