“Eating, breathing, speaking and living the way other people do changes a person,” said Anthropology Professor Greg van Alstyne. “Students get new experiences and insights into other cultures, and they can learn from that.”

Student email available

 Over the past few months, there has been some confusion about the student email system. Students did not know where to receive their log in information, or how to access their account.

However, your student email is ready and waiting for your log in. Your email address is firstname.lastname@student.centralia.edu and your password is YYMMDD, your birth year, month and date. Your account can be accessed at http://login.live.com.

You need to change your password once logged on, enter your birth year and country, then click accept. The “Mail” tab will take you to your inbox.

There are many reasons to use a student email, such as adding professionalism during email correspondence.

For more information please contact Patrick Allison at ext. 705.
