******** PREVIOUS ANNOUNCEMENTS ******** 

REGISTER FOR FALL QUARTER
Continuing or Returning Students wanting to register for Fall Quarter, call (206) 546-4523 or (206) 546-4559 for more information. Registration runs
through September 29, 2008.

You will also be able to inquire about programs and classes, apply for admissions and register.

STUDENT E-MAIL ACCOUNTS SWITCHED TO GMAIL ON AUG 1st
Beginning Friday, August 1, students who sign up for new Shoreline e-mail accounts will receive accounts in a Shoreline domain in Google's Gmail service in place of the current Outlook e-mail system. This will provide students with a number of benefits including 6+ gigabytes of storage space, accounts that never expire for alumni, Google Docs (online Office-like software and storage), and more at no charge and without advertisements. Student Government approved of this change earlier this year.

Initially current student accounts will be left untouched and new accounts will be created in Gmail. Shortly thereafter current students will be given the option of moving their accounts to Gmail. Students whose e-mail accounts are hosted on Gmail will have accounts that look like jsmith@go.shoreline.edu. They will log into their e-mail by browsing to go.shoreline.edu. All users of our mail.shoreline.edu webmail (Outlook Web Access) will see a new sidebar reminding students who signed up for accounts after August 1 to go instead to go.shoreline.edu.

Have questions? Contact Gavin Smith at gavinsmith@shoreline.edu or 206-546-4792.
