Announcements

Are you graduating this month? If so, congratulations!

Here’s information about how your Brown accounts and access will change during this exciting transition. (If you’re continuing on at Brown in another role, like staff or a graduate program, your experience will vary - please refer to the link at the bottom of this email for details.)

Please be cautious about other emails you may receive related to accounts and graduation. In past years, we’ve seen scam messages targeted at graduating students saying that an account will be closed unless action is taken.

The following list includes technology-related trainings offered by various campus groups.

Join us on May 5th, 2017 for Brown's first Tech Summit!

You are welcome to stop by for just one session or the entire day. To help us with headcounts for lunch and the afternoon tours, please RSVP by April 28th. RSVPs are required for lunch.

Residential students now have access to HBO Go. 

Earlier this semester, we added HBO to the Philo channel lineup. Now, residential students also can log in to HBO Go. Unlike Philo, HBO Go is also accessible from off campus. The Office of Residential Life, and Residential Council chairs Ryan Lessing '17 and Heather Sabel '17 worked with us to make this possible.

To access HBO Go, follow the instructions on this page. 

You can watch HBO Go on the following devices:

Why Data Privacy Day?

Privacy is important year-round, but this event is observed internationally each year on January 28th to promote awareness about the many ways personal information is collected, stored, used, and shared.

It is also a good reminder at the beginning of each new year to learn more about privacy and how to protect your data as well as that of others. The Information Security Group (ISG) has prepared a page of videos, online events and other resources to assist you.
