It is time to clean out the closet.

Published on January 26, 2023 in Office of Technology

About a year ago, I turned every hanger around in my closet. As I wear shirts I put the items back with the hanger facing the correct way. New clothes also get correctly facing hangers. Why do this?

I do this because it’s easy to glance in my closet and see what has not been worn in a year. There isn’t any ambiguity – these items have not been worn. For the sake of my closet and my ability to find things, it’s time to gather the old clothes and add them to the donation pile.

Speaking of old materials and getting rid of things, this brings us to the P drive.

It’s time that we remove old materials from the P drive and we’re asking for your help. The hangers have all been turned around. Now we need to figure out which shirts are still being worn.

Please take some time to examine any documents you have stored on the P drive. As you do, please begin marking those files/folders that must remain by adding “KEEP2023” to the right of the file/folder name. All other files will be purged on June 30, 2023.

We will provide detailed instructions in the February 3, 2023 update.

Let’s clean out this closet.
