You will encounter professionals with varying levels of education and expertise in
the campus community. It is customary to show respect to all of your university instructors.
You should always (in person, email, written correspondence and in telephone conversations)
refer to him/her as Doctor or Professor unless they indicate otherwise.
There is no formal dress code on campus. During summer, T-shirts and shorts are the
norm. In winter, temperatures may require multiple layers. It is the students' responsibility
to present themselves in a way that demonstrates self-respect and respect for others.
While autumn in Laramie can be glorious with that beautiful second summer, often winter
comes when we are not prepared. Laramie can have many sub-zero days when people's
noses and eyelashes can freeze. It is, therefore, important to have a good winter
coat, gloves, boots and hat for those days. Your classrooms may be warm, so dressing
in layers is recommended during winter days.
All students at the university are provided with an official campus e-mail address.
Set aside time daily to check your campus e-mail since it is the default for all official
communication. University departments and colleges send notices by e-mail on a regular
basis to alert students to scholarships and other student opportunities, class cancellations,
and other general information.
Since your WyoOne ID card is also your key to accessing the residence halls, you should
keep it on you at all times. Cards are issued to all students at the beginning of
their first semester of enrollment at UW. Among other things, students will use their
WyoOne ID card to pick up transcripts, to process their financial aid, to cash checks,
and to access student health services. The WyoOne card may also be used as a debit
card to make purchases on campus after the deposit account is established. The WyoOne
ID office is in the IT Building on the first floor just east of Room 167. There is
a replacement fee for lost, stolen, or damaged cards. Email
idoffice@uwyo.edu for more information..
You can make deposits, view transaction history, and access other card management
features online.
