WPI Exchange Server Guide for Students

The WPI Exchange Server is a tool available to students which allows access to email, calendars, and contacts. There benefits of an Exchange account include the ability to access mail anywhere from an internet browser through Outlook Web Access, or through any Outlook Client, as well as the ability to share your calendar and schedule with faculty and other students and also to view the shared calendars of anyone who has shared it with you. This is very useful when trying to find times for group meetings or to set up To-Do Lists between multiple people.
