Class Email Lists

Email functions available in the Howdy web portal in the Class Roster on the Instructor tab allow instructors to send email to an entire class roster, individual students within a class or all students in multiple classes. Class rosters and mailing lists are automatically provided to instructors every semester.

Also, specialized lists can be requested through TAMUDirect, which provides individuals or offices with preloaded email lists to send messages to specific groups of recipients. For example, instructors can email all students in a specific major in a class.

eLearning has a Mail tool, which routes messages to various course roles (co-instructors, designers, TAs, students and groups). It also can forward to email addresses external to the learning management system.

Getting Started
