join the Facebook network?

<p>Ok so this may sound pathetic, but how do I join the "UF '14" network on Facebook?
We don't have our UF e-mail yet, do we?</p>

<p>ok just kidding. after searching the internet, i found another CC thread involving this issue.</p>

<p>what you have to do is:
(1) log on to gatorlink.ufl.edu. there, set up e-mail forwarding to your favorite non-UF e-mail service.</p>

<p>(2) wait like a day. then go to Facebook, click account–>account settings. click the networks tab on the top. Then join the UF network. Your UF e-mail address is your gatorlink user name followed by @ufl.edu (ex. <a href=“mailto:UF2014@ufl.edu”>UF2014@ufl.edu</a>).</p>

<p>(3) the message should eventually show up in your inbox. if it doesn’t work, give the forwarding some more time. also try resending the email through Facebook.</p>

<p>voila! you’ve joined the UF network!</p>

<p>I don’t really recall back that far, but if you have a working gatorlink name and password, you can probably log in directly to <a href=“http://webmail.ufl.edu%5B/url%5D”>http://webmail.ufl.edu</a></p>

<p>when you do that it says you don’t have a mailbox. i think we activate those during preview prep or whatever, but this is just a loophole that allows you to access your mail.</p>
