Is it just me or does everyone find it
useless? I really don't see the point in
it. I still have the original college
email account from my first school which I
will be returning to in january, and
another one from my second. The first
one, has been there for like a year and a
half, and I don't use it, I never did.
And I find it really annoying because
instead of sending me email the the
personal email address which they have on
file, they send it to the school email
address. I just checked it for like the
third time in a year and a half, and there
is so much to read through. It angers me
off because that is where they send all of
the important info which I miss. I think
it is just useless. I mean after you
graduate, they give you like 3 months to
give your new address out to everyone, and
then they just shut it down anyway. Okay,
I know this is not a very important post,
but I just had to rant a little.

My college e-mail is can sort of be
helpful, even though I rarely check it. I
e-mail a lot of my profs. Just through my
hotmail account. The only thing I think I
use my college email is to talk to student
services, proctors, and other people I
need to get in contact with. Plus, they
e-mail me a lot of events. That is weird
that you can give it away. My college
email address is...
Buick0941@uwc.Edu
i'm not sure who would want my last name
for their email addy. Hehe.
I have never heard about giving it away,
so that is something new or something I
missed.

I like my college email. I get so much
junk at yahoo that I set the spam blocker
on the highest setting: if it's not from
someone on my buddy list, I don't get it!
That soo would not work for my college
stuff, cause it comes from so many
different people.
