I ended up just deleting those files, as I don't have users able to log in locally anyways. I'm sure there's a better way to do it though.

Set the permissions of each directory so that only the user can access it.
drwx------ 15 mdresser mdresser 4096 Feb 3 14:47 mdresser
Like so.
The command to do that is chmod, man chmod should get you started. in this case, chmod 700 is what I did.
do I have to do this individually for each user? (all 120 of them) is there a way to do this in the skel directory in. the futureI think this should work, anyways :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
