Drop box for quiz results

Per Nettrice's request, I set up a drop box for quiz results.

Students can submit their files by drag & dropping them to a central location. They can only put files here, but can not read or delete them, nor can they see anything else in this folder. Faculty members can review the files on the server in my office (currently used by Galen and for training purposes).

Students can access it from any computer in the labs:
1. Under the "Go" menu in the Finder, select "Connect to Server"
2. Browse to the "Local" network
3. Select the server "SF-Training" and click Connect
4. Students can log in as Guest or as cacuser with the regular password
5. Mount the volume "nettrice" - a server icon will show up on the desktop.
6. Double-click to open the folder. You will see an icon within, labeled "Drop Box"
7. Drag and drop your file onto this icon. You do not have permission to view the contents of the folder, but you can still submit your file there.
*** Don't forget to name your file intelligently. With many students submitting files, it is easy to get lost in the shuffle. I suggest using a format using your last name and the date, such as: macaisa-Jan18.psd (no spaces or special characters, and including the file extension).
