This article is for faculty and staff who wish to use the HuskyCT email tool to communicate with students.

The instructor can use the Email tool in HuskyCT to send information to one or more of the students at their uconn.edu email address. A copy of the email will go to the instructor sending it. If students reply to the email received the response will go to the instructor’s uconn.edu email address.

Instructors can access the “Send Email” function through Course Tools in the Control Panel and the Grade Center. To give students access, it must be added as a “Tool Link” to the left-hand navigation menu
