Accounts may be obtained by contacting the at 387-5436. And, passwords may be changed here. If your department already has an account, but you are unsure of the account name and/or password, contact the Account Coordinator. To discuss issues and share information about publishing Web pages at WMU, join the Webmasters User Group (WUG). WUG holds monthly meetings and the schedule may be found on the WUG Web site.
