Brock Email

All graduate students should activate their Brock email address and check it regularly. Some departments will use this as the only means of contacting you. You can have your Brock email forwarded to another account if you wish. Click here for more information on activating and setting up your account. NEW - All graduate students can now use an alias for their email address firstname.lastname@brocku.ca, rather than fl07zz@brocku.ca. For example, the graduate student John Doe whose old badger account was jd07zz@brocku.ca can now use john.doe@brocku.ca as their e-mail address while still using jd07zz as their login. Note that this is not a new account, just an alias for your existing badger account, you can change this information under Options>General Options.
