Help and Information about Central Lakes College Google Gmail for Students
What is Google Apps for Education?
Google Apps for Education is a integrated communication and collaboration solution hosted by Google. It includes GMail, Google Calendar, Google Talk, Google Docs, and many other Google Products. Student receive 25GB of e-mail storage space, and their e-mail can be accessed from any web browser, and even can be synchronized to their smart phones.
Why did CLC switch to Gmail?
Central Lakes College decided to migrate student e-mail to Google GMail because the old NetMail system was dated, inefficient, and lacking in features. Students wanted a modern e-mail experience and the ability to sync to smart phones, and Google GMail was chosen as the best solution. Google has redundant data centers and currently guarantees a 99.9% uptime to ensure the safety and availability of your e-mail. To ensure security, Google uses SSL connections to ensure the safety and security of communications between Google servers and your web browser.
What is my username and password?
You log into CLC Google Gmail with the same username and password that you use to log into campus computers with. Note however that if you change your password in either Google or the campus computers, your password will not change on the other system.
You can find your student username and password HERE
What will my address be?
