Reminder! Many Carleton usernames were created at a time when we could only use eight characters, resulting in everyone with last names longer than seven characters losing the last letters off their names. Usernames are no longer restricted to only eight characters, and while there’s no direct connection, changing email systems is a good opportunity to revisit usernames. If you would like to change your username to more closely reflect your last name, please contact the ITS Helpdesk. For details, please visit this site. You can find this information, plus comprehensive training, frequently asked questions, and more on the project website.
