Forward HAWKMail messages to your own personal e-mail account!

Did you know that  you MUST check your HAWKMail regularly, but to make this easier, you can have those messages forwarded to your regular e-mail account?

Just working in the library, I hear from several students who admit that they never check their HAWKMail.  These conversations usually occur after after something serious comes up (such as realizing that they cannot see their grades or register for classes) all because they missed something important since they did not check their HAWKMail.

Many of these same students DO have some other type of e-mail account (through their Internet provider, Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail and more).  If you check this e-mail regularly, then all you need to do is forward your HAWKMail messages to this account, and you will finally be getting your messages from HACC, your instructors, other students, etc!

How to forward your HAWKMail:

1. On the HACC web page, look to the top right corner and click HAWKMail
2. On the HAWKMail page, look for  the red HAWKMail box.  This will show a link to a document called "How to forward HAWKMail (pdf)".  Just open this (print if needed), and follow the directions to forward your HAWKMail to an e-mail account of your choice!

If you do not have a private e-mail account then please remember that you must remember to check your HAWKMail regularly.  Important announcements and messages are sent through this account, and students are expected to check this regularly!
