Can I use my personal GMail account at the same time as my HSU GMail account?

Yes, but it's a little tricky at first.

The easiest way is to use a different browser for each account (e.g., Firefox and Internet Explorer), but that's not always possible.

Here's how to configure your account so it will work for you:

1. In your Humboldt account, click Settings
2. Click the Accounts tab
3. Click Google Account Settings (in the last section, titled Change account settings)
4. Where it says "Multiple Sign-in", click Edit
5. Turn it on and check the box next to each line to confirm you understand the implications
6. Click Save
7. Sign out of HSU email & CLOSE your  browser
8. Open your browser and log back in to HSU email
9. Click pull-down arrow next to your email address (in the top right-hand corner), and select Sign in to another account
10. Log in to your personal account
