All students, beginning in the 2008-2009 Academic year, will now enjoy the features and benefits of student email here at OJC. Students will be assigned an email when they register for any class. The email account is free and students can continue using it as an alumni of OJC.
Assigned email addresses will follow the format of first initial of first name, first initial of middle name (if applicable), and the last name spelled out followed by the @ symbol and the email domain of student.cccs.edu as in the following example:
abtest@student.cccs.edu.
In an instance where two students may have the same name, a number will be appended to the student's last name. This email cannot be changed by the students nor can name changes be requested by the student; however, non-working email accounts should be reported to the Computer Center staff at OJC located in McBride Hall Rm 140.
Student emails can be activated within the My Community Ed portal and accessed via Microsoft Exchange Labs. Further support information can be found in the My Community Ed portal on account access and account management. This email address will be considered the student's preferred email address and will be directly accessible from inside the portal as well as from this page. All OJC students are responsible for management of their email accounts. If you prefer to use another email address, you must forward this email address to another account. To forward your email address to another account please follow the instructions below:
