New Students, Faculty, or Staff
If you are a new student, faculty, or staff you must
activate your campus account
before you can access your Whitman email or the campus network.
To Activate your Account:
-
Make sure that you have your Datatel ID, the
5-7
digit number printed on the front of your Whitman ID card (under your
name). If you don't know your ID Number...
- Students - instructions on getting your ID Number
were provided in your new student packet you received in May.
- Faculty - contact the Dean of Faculty office.
- Staff - contact Human Resources for your ID Number.
-
Go to any computer connected to the Internet, open a
web browser, go to https://rs.whitman.edu/activate
and follow the instructions.
Important Notes
- Go slowly though the activation process, and
read everything carefully. You are responsible for being aware of and understanding the policies and guidelines you are agreeing to abide by.
- You will see your password only once
for
security reasons. If you go past it, clicking the back button will not
display your password again.
- Your password is case sensitive and should you choose to write it down, make absolutely sure it is kept in a safe place where you can find it easily, and change it to something unique at your first opportunity.
Continuing Students, Faculty, or Staff
If you are a continuing student, faculty, or staff
member then your account will be re-activated, and you should still be able to use your same password as before.
If you have forgotten your password, please contact the WCTS Helpdesk at 509-527-4976 or helpdesk@whitman.edu.
