College Accounts

BSC User Account	Your BSC User Account provides you with access to campus computers, BSC e-mail account, and your WebHost folder (which you can use for posting college-related web pages and saving documents and files). Since the storage quota for BSC e-mail accounts is limited, please delete unwanted messages and archive others often. For security reasons, BSC passwords must be changed every 90 days. Check the Be Security Conscious site for some great tips on selecting a secure password.
