Email Accounts

Each student at the Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism is issued an email account, and messages sent to that account can automatically be forwarded to other email addresses used by the student. Once your email account has been issued, all electronic communication will be sent ONLY to your school email account. Students are responsible for all information, notices and assignments sent to that account. This means that if you do not normally use email, you must get into the habit of checking your Newmark J-School email on a regular basis. Most faculty members communicate with their students through group mailing lists (listservs) that use the school email accounts; students can only post to a class listserv using their school email account. Saying that you never read email is no excuse for missing an assignment or failing to participate in an online class discussion.

It’s easy to figure out how to contact anyone at the Newmark J-School via email. All email addresses are in this format: firstname.lastname@journalism.cuny.edu. Students will keep their email account after graduation and also have access to an alumni listserv. To resolve any problems related to your email account, please open a ticket using the online Help Desk: http://help.journalism.cuny.edu.
