titleHow can I find a student's email address?

Student email addresses are available to faculty and staff in the EMU directory when logged into myEMU. Student email addresses will no longer be available in the Google Address List, meaning they will no longer autocomplete as you begin typing the name of a student in the To field of an email you are composing.

titleI have student workers who routinely access the email address, phone number, or address of other students as a part of their job. Do I need to remove their access?

Student workers are permitted to access this information as part of their job duties and HB1 does not apply to them in their role as a student worker.  They, like other employees, must be made aware that they may not disclose this information, but no additional action is needed for them to continue to access student contact information.
