Creating a Student Group in Groupwise

In this tutorial, we will cover how to create a Groupwise group for your student's Email. This will allow you to send an Email to your entire class by selecting just the group as the recipient of the Email instead of having to enter each of your student's Email addresses individually. First, we will get a list of your student's Cougarmail addresses. If you already know how to do this, skip ahead to creating the group in the program Novell GroupWise or the GroupWise Web Access.

Getting Your Student's Cougarmail address

1) Log into Oasis

2) Click Class List.

2) 1. Select the semester from the drop-down menu
    2. Click Submit.

3) 1. Select your course from the drop-down menu
    2. Click Submit.

4) 1. You will need your student's name and Email address from this screen.
    2. Note: Oasis displays a limited number of students on each screen, if you have more students than are displayed, you will need to use the Records: links to view additional students.
