E-mail Alias

Release date: May 12, 2005 |

To supplement your current e-mail address, the college has created an e-mail alias for you.  This new e-mail alias consists of:

1. First Name
2. .
3. Last Name
4. Integer Suffix (starting with 1 if required)
5. @goucher.edu

NOTE:

1. Hyphens, periods, spaces, or a suffix in a last name will not be included in the e-mail address
