Computer Accounts
Issuance of Accounts
All members of the Sarah Lawrence College student body are provided with accounts on the mail server and academic network, subject to the Acceptable Use Policy (AUP). Services associated with these accounts include electronic mail, file storage space on the network, access to the Internet, and remote access to library resources. Accounts are created for incoming students by the Information Systems department, and information is mailed to incoming students during the summer.Web server accounts may be provided to students upon request.
Should you need support for your network account or e-mail, visit the Academic Computing Department (ACD) Web page to locate several self-help tutorials and documents on common issues, or visit the ACD Help Desk in the library. No account information is discussed or disseminated over the phone; under no circumstances can a password be changed over the phone. Students needing to change account information such as usernames or passwords must visit the Help Desk during office hours: 9 a.m. – 9 p.m., Monday through Thursday, and 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. on Fridays, during the fall and spring semesters.
Termination of Accounts
Students may retain their network privileges (including electronic mail accounts,Web accounts, dialup access, and file storage space) until August 15 of the year in which they graduate. Graduating students are responsible for ensuring data has been safely transferred to another medium prior to the termination of the account.
