To provide a better and more consistent electronic experience for you, EAC
Information Technology Services has been asked to make some changes to Gila
Hank Online, Canvas, and MonsterMail. Our tentative date to implement these
changes will be on August 10th (in between the summer and fall
terms).
Gila Hank Online and Canvas
Gila Hank Online and Canvas will start using Microsoft 365 to
authenticate your logins. This will make them consistent with other
electronic systems used at EAC like Akademos (textbooks) and
CampusLogic (Financial Aid) that already authenticate students using
their Microsoft 365 accounts.
MonsterMail
To further lean into Microsoft 365, we will start using it to host the
student email accounts (MonsterMail) instead of Gmail/Google.
This means you’ll start using Outlook Web Access instead of Gmail for
your student email (MonsterMail) on August 10th.
Only currently enrolled and recently enrolled students will have
MonsterMail accounts. Our current definition of ‘recently enrolled’
will be anyone that has been enrolled at any time in the three years
preceding the current semester.
Our goal is to make these changes as non-disruptive as possible to you
We will email you additional information as we get closer to the
implementation date, including links to web pages with details and
FAQ’s.
You will continue to use the same password for Gila Hank Online,
Canvas, and MonsterMail as you do currently.
The same departments on campus that have been able to assist you with
password resets for Gila Hank Online, Canvas, and MonsterMail will
continue to be able to help you after these changes.
To help us help you, make sure you keep your password reset methods
updated in your Microsoft 365 account
It’s also a good idea to have multiple password reset methods
(email, phone, authenticator app, etc.) on your Microsoft 365
account.
If you haven’t already, log into your EAC Microsoft 365 account at
https://login.microsoft.com
to activate your account and set up your password reset methods.
Your username will be your MonsterMail address (with the @
monsters.eac.edu
suffix) and the password will be the same one you use for Gila Hank
Online.
As mentioned earlier, we will continue to communicate more information to
you over the next few weeks leading up to these changes. Stay tuned and
thank you for your patience.
