Email for all Employees


The University of Wisconsin - Stevens Point needs all employees* to have an email address where it can send University-related business information. If the employee is mainly based on campus then a University email account must be used. However, to accommodate those employees that do not spend the majority of their time on-campus, an established off-campus email address may be supplied to Information Technology to use instead. The email account, whether on-campus or off-campus in nature, must be read on a regular basis.  The University is required to deliver  certain information to employees and must be assured that it is received in a timely manner.  Also other information pertinent to the maintenance of employee email, logon and RAS accounts must be read. If an employee chooses not to read the University-supplied email account at reasonable intervals, then Information Technology will do the following to facilitate the department to receive the employee's email for them:

Give permission to a designated person or persons who will be responsible for adding the employee's email account into the designee's Outlook desktop so they can read and send mail for that person without having the employee's email actually being delivered to the designee's account. This prevents clutter in the designee's Inbox and also doesn't take up the designee's email quota. The designee will be responsible for printing out the mail for the employee and delivering it to them in a reasonable manner.

All new accounts are now being created and processed through the Campus Information Maintenance System (CIMS).  Please note that only Department Information Managers (DIMs) can request new employees. If an off campus email address is to be used instead of an on campus one, the Postmaster must be notified of that address.

*Employees here refers not only to persons actually employed by the University, but also:

    anyone maintaining an Emeritus appointment, any UWSP Affiliated person who wants access to University-computer resources, and any retired faculty/staff member who desires to maintain RAS, email or logon privileges after retirement.
