CWI E-mail and Blackboard Accounts
Communication
Announcements regarding changes in class schedule, reminders or other general communication will be
delivered by email or through Blackboard Announcements. If you wish to communicate with me I prefer
email. Please confine communication to issues related to the class. I do not respond to communication on
Facebook or any other social media.
If you are going to be late or are unable to attend class for any reason, I expect that you have made a good
decision about your attendance. You do not need to notify me unless there is a problem that will keep you
out of class for more than one class meeting. Unusual circumstances do occur. I want you to succeed, I will
work with you to help you to make arrangements to help you when I can.
All registered CWI students receive a college email and Bb account. Every course at CWI has a Bb
component. It is the student’s responsibility to access both accounts regularly to avoid missing
important messages and deadlines. Bb can be accessed through the icon on CWI’s home page:
www.cwidaho.cc. Email can be accessed through the login page at http://mail.live.com. Your
default password for both Bb and email accounts will be the first letter of your firstname in CAPS +
first letter of your last name in CAPS + “logon” in lower-case letters + last 4 digits of your SSN; if you
don’t have a SSN, then use the last 4 digits of your student ID number (Ex: Jonathan Smith’s
password would be JSlogon1234).
Drop Policy
It is the student’s responsibility to drop the course. Students are responsible for adding and
dropping courses. At the end of the first week of class, faculty may drop students for non-
attendance up to census date. Beyond census date, it is the student’s responsibility to drop any
course he/she does not intend to finish. Students who stop attending a course without filing a drop
request may receive a grade of F.
I will not allow new students into the class after the 2ndSeptember 7.
Last day to withdraw without a “W” is September 9
Last day to withdraw with a “w” November 15
If you are not attending classes and you do not withdraw before November 15 you will receive an
