Information Sources

Members of the Law School community must be familiar with policies and other notices that may affect them. The Law School disseminates information on its policies through a number of means and provides individual notice to students as appropriate. Students are urged to check the information sources listed below on a frequent basis.

OnTrack System

Elon OnTrack is a secure site, http://ontrack.elon.edu/datatel/openweb, which allows students, faculty members and staff to access and maintain information that pertains to Elon University, including class schedules, grades and financial aid information. To fully utilize Elon OnTrack, a person must have an active username and password for OnTrack. A student experiencing problems with OnTrack should contact the computer support help desk at (336) 278-5200 to receive or reset login information.

Law School E-mail Account

Elon Law strongly encourages the use of technology to facilitate learning and communication. To this end, each incoming student is given an e-mail account through Elon. Law School administration and faculty will communicate with students only through their Elon e-mail addresses; personal e-mail addresses from commercial e-mail providers will not be used.

The faculty and administration will rely on e- mail as a means of communication, and students should regularly check their assigned Elon e-mail accounts. Students experiencing difficulty with their e-mail accounts should contact Technology Services.

Mailboxes

Physical distribution is more appropriate than electronic distribution for some printed materials. For this reason each incoming law student is assigned a numbered mailbox for his or her use. The mailboxes are situated on the second floor of the Law School. Students are encouraged to check their assigned mailboxes often (at least daily) for important information and communications. Questions about the student mailboxes may be directed to the Registrar.

Bulletin Boards

Three bulletin boards are located on the upper floor of the Law School near the student lockers. Student organizations and individual students may post announcements on these three boards. Class and official Law School activity announcements take priority for space on the boards. There is also a bulletin board outside the law library.

Law School Website

The Law School has an Internet website. Changes in policies, first class assignments, inclement weather announcements, and other news may be posted on the site from time to time.
