New files publishing automatically

When I upload a new file to my modules, there is no option to make it published or unpublished, so as soon as I add the item, it publishes it immediately.  If don't want it published yet (which is often the case), I have to then set it to unpublish, but by then, students have already gotten emails that the file was made available.  Is there anyway to upload a file in my modules and NOT have it published automatically by default? We get this option when creating Assignments and whatnot, it seems like files should also have that option.  Thanks!
