My Hamilton

My Hamilton is your personalized view of information at Hamilton, as well as a starting point for accessing information and entertainment from all over the Web. My Hamilton gives you customizable control over the Web resources and information that are available to you, such as your Hamilton E-mail, calendar, ESS/SSS space, Hill Card and Blackboard accounts.

My Hamilton uses tabs to group certain resources. Each resource is called a channel. There is an [EDIT] button on each channel which enables you to manage display settings and content for the channel.
