This will only create a copy of the files in your personal account. If you would like to clear space after the transfer, you will have to go back into your Bethel account and manually delete the items. 

To see your items, look in your personal google drive for a folder labeled with your Bethel email and the date it was sent over. Similarly, in gmail, search for the label with your Bethel email on it.
