Global Agenda viewing is an option of UICal on the Web that allows you to send a URL to anyone you want -- they do not have to have to have a UICal account and they may not have anything to do with UIC at all -- that will allow them read-only access to a view of the times that you are busy.

People viewing your Global Agenda Web page will be able to read the text of agenda items that you mark items with the access level of Public. Non-Public items will just appear as "Busy".

Queues are locations for jobs, are composed of compute nodes, and have rules regarding who may use them and for how long. Jobs are submitted to queues (via the qsub command) and the system decides which node or nodes assigned to the queue runs the job. Queues are aptly named; some jobs queue execute immediately (running) while others wait to execute (queued) until the requested resource(s) in the queue become available. 

There are five queues: three only for jobs submitted by students and two only for the jobs submitted by staff/faculty.

PGP Desktop Encryption has integrated email functions, but the UIC license doesn't include them. However, the PGP Viewer is part of the UIC PGP Desktop Encryption installation. PGP Viewer decrypts, verifies, and displays encrypted or signed files. So if you save an encrypted or signed email message to a file, you can decrypt or verify the saved file with PGP Viewer.
