@u.northwestern.edu Group Accounts

@u.northwestern.edu group accounts offer you the ability to contact Northwestern students/group members the same way you contact individual @u.northwestern.edu account holders: via e-mail, instant message, calendar, and documents and spreadsheets.

@u.northwestern.edu collaboration group accounts allow you to:

• Manage and publish group calendars
• Share online documents
• Collaborate with group members
• Access archived documents
• Choose a customized account name
• Create a "listserv-like" environment
  

Why a group account?

• Ample storage for group documents and contacts
• Retain the group account – and its content – year after year

Examples of how you can utilize a group account include:

• Coordinate meetings and post project plans and meeting minutes for Wildcat Philanthropy
  
• Publicize the Wildcat Residence Hall group's fall activity schedule through the calendar publication page
• Inform Wildcat Fraternity members of the upcoming meeting schedule with one click to your user group
• University departments can advertise co-curricular activities to their students
  
• Transfer group account ownership while keeping group documents for future access
