Clark College will no longer be communicating with students via paper mail, but will be using free Google Gmail for correspondence instead. So that you don’t miss out on important registration notices and other information, be sure to activate your pre-assigned Clark student email account using the link below. If you prefer to get your email at another address, just go ahead and activate your Clark Gmail account (which will look like: yourusername@students.clark.edu) and set it to forward to your preferred address. eLearning at Clark doesn’t set up email accounts, so if you need help you should contact the people in IT Services who do by either visiting the library computer lab technicians (in the upstairs lab) or emailing Gmail Support. The website linked to below also has a support phone number you may use, plus tutorials and instructions.

Going through your “Personal Information” profile in Blackboard and making sure that your email address is correct, is an important early step as a student. Even if you’re not signed up for an online course, that simple action will help you reset your Blackboard password if you forget it later.
For fully online classes, email can be a major form of communication between instructors and their students. To avoid missing something significant from your instructor, be sure that the email address field in your Blackboard profile is correct when classes begin.
As the Clark College eLearning Systems Administrator, I often come across interesting and useful information, ideas, and resources that may assist you in your elearning endeavors.
