Email

The new (since Jan. '10) UMass student email system, Blackboard system for online courses, and wiki accounts on wikispaces.umb.edu now all use the same username and password.
All university official business will be sent only to your University email address. If you want to forward all emails from your @umb.edu address to a personal email address, refer to http://www.umb.edu/it/getting_services/email/logging_on_for_the_first_time/#forward. That means you have to log into your University (@umb.edu) email address at least once to set up that forwarding. If you don't know the password, follow the steps on http://webmail.umb.edu. If you don't know your University (@umb.edu) email address email grad.teachered@umb.edu to ask them to look it up for you.
