gmav Update
Some students who have changed their name with the registrar's office, but did not change their Net ID, have reported problems with gmav. If you are one of these students, please change your Net ID to match your name change with the registrar's office.
If you experience official UNO e-mail going directly to your gmav spam folder, please review your spam folder and move those messages to your inbox by selecting the message(s) and clicking 'Not Spam'.
Gmav, UNO's implementation of Google Apps for Education, is ready for use. Learn more about these services on the Google Apps For Education web page.
