How do I export data out of my OneDrive?

After 3 major semesters (i.e. Fall, Spring, Summer) of non-enrollment, a student's LSUS Microsoft 365 services are deprovisioned.

Upon graduating or otherwise ending enrollment at LSUS, some students may find that they have the need or desire to create a local copy of data they may have stored in OneDrive while enrolled.
