Will,

On my campus, Cottey College, students and faculty alike use 
Pegasus Mail and are hooked to the same server.  This makes 
exchanging information, making and receiving assignments, 
setting up meetings, etc., extremely easy.

I'm not sure about what a change to the configuration you 
describe would mean.  Certainly, it would not be as convenient 
as our system.

Subject: student email--help

At the University of Southern Colorado, my educational leaders want to
stop giving students email and will suggest instead that students use free
email for the web...is this happening anywhwere else?  I got into using
computers in school because I thought I was "wiring" already existing
learning networks...now it seems like my leaders are going to stratify
email users at my school (while telling students to get free email,
faculty will be "given" microsoft exchange).  Students and some teachers
currently use Pine and though some complain about it being old, it is free
and I don't have any probs with it...please help me with news of how how
email is served on your campus.

1) Do your students have supported email on your campus?

2) Do you use the same email system as your students use?

Thanks in advance for your reply, will hochman
