IT@UC Office of Information Security Hosts Spring Shred Event April 5

IT@UC Office of Information Security will provide free shredding services to students, faculty and staff at its Spring Shred Event on Thursday, April 5. 

Bring any personal or professional documents such as tax forms, bank statements, credit reports and any other documents you want securely destroyed and recycled to McMicken Commons between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. or until the trucks are full (10,000 lb limit). This year, there will be two trucks available to better serve the university community’s secure document shredding needs.

All metal, including paper clips and hanging file folders, must be removed before dropping off documents to shred. Staples can remain on the documents, but all plastic needs to be removed as well. Anything that can’t be torn isn’t allowed. 

University records must be destroyed in compliance with the university’s records management policy. Information on proper destruction of university records may be found here or by contacting the University Records Manager.

Visit the Information Security website for more information.
