All students must have their WebCT account extablished and have this course added to their account BEFORE the course begins. Please DO NOT delay this process. Establishing a WebCT account is not something that happens over night, so please plan ahead. If you do not have a WebCT account, contact the IT help desk at 581-2506 as soon as possible.
To access WebCT, click on the above blue "WebCT login" icon. Then, click on the Course List link. On the course list page scroll down to ERS 103 and click the “Register” icon on the far right. This should add it to your WebCT account page. If you cannot add the ERS 103 course to your WebCT account yet, it means that I have removed permission for students to create accounts - try back later.
If you are not sure what I am talking about, you will need to call the help desk. I cannot help you if you do not have an account, or if you are experiencing difficulties with your account, so please call the help desk.
